Hay dos indicaciones muy claras de la ciencia real y el arte real: el primer signo interno es que un erudito o un artista no trabaja con fines de lucro, sino para el sacrificio, para su vocación; el segundo signo externo es que sus obras son comprensibles para todas las personas. La ciencia real estudia y hace accesible ese conocimiento que la gente de ese período de la historia considera importante, y el arte real transfiere esta verdad del dominio del conocimiento al dominio de los sentimientos.
Crear arte no es algo tan elevado como muchas personas creen, pero ciertamente es algo útil y amable de hacer, especialmente si une a las personas y despierta sentimientos amables en ellos.
""El deseo sexual, si es recíproco, origina un complot de dos personas que hace frente al resto de los complots que hay en el mundo. Es una conspiración de dos. El plan es ofrecer al otro un respiro ante el dolor del mundo. No la felicidad sino un descanso físico ante la enorme responsabilidad de los cuerpos hacia el dolor.
En todo deseo hay tanta compasión como apetito. Sea cual sea la proporción, las dos cosas se ensartan juntas. El deseo es inconcebible sin una herida. Si hubiera alguien sin heridas en este mundo, viviría sin deseo.
El deseo anhela proteger al cuerpo deseado de la tragedia que encarna y, lo que es más, se cree capaz. La conspiración consiste en crear juntos un espacio, un lugar, necesariamente temporal, para eximirse de la herida incurable de la carne. Ese lugar es el interior del otro cuerpo. La conspiración consiste en deslizarse al interior del otro, allí donde no se les pueda encontrar. El deseo es un intercambio de escondites”".
