The joy of writing - The power of preserving - Revenge of a mortal hand ... (W. Szymborska, Poetry)
For a drink of written water from a spring whose surface will xerox her soft muzzle? - Why does she lift her head - does she hear something? - Later she has expressed her pessimism about the future of mankind - While skepticism has marked Szymborska's views of the human condition - it has not stopped her from believing in the power of words and the joy arising from imagination - At the age of 9 she became interested in films - especially those which were forbidden to her - Szymborska's 2 poems published in the magazine Orda (1/2000) expressed her feelings of aging and strangeness - She sees that we are only visitors in a cosmic party - After finding himself (Sienkiewicz) penniless, he left the university without receiving a degree - Those who are alive receive a mandate from those who are silent for ever - They can fulfill their duties only by trying to reconstruct precisely things as they were - and by wrestling the past from fictions and legends ... (C. Milosz, Nobel L. 1981)
"In a Roman Catholic country", Milosz wrote at an early stage of his career, "intellectual freedom always goes hand in hand with atheism" - Later Milosz accepted his religious background and started to study Hebrew in order to render the Old Testament into Polish - What once was great, now appeared small - Kingdoms were fading like snow-covered bronze - Stretched on the grass by the bank of the rives, As long, long ago, I launch my boats of bark ... (C. Milosz)
Milosz's early works also show traces of distaste for any form of nationalism, anti-Semitism, and ideological indoctrination - "What is poetry which does not save nations or people?", he wrote - His new home country (California) Milosz viewed ironically: "What splendor - What poverty! What humanity - What inhumanity! What mutual good will - What individual isolation! What loyalty to the ideal - What hypocrisy! What triumph of conscience - What perversity!" ... (from Milosz's ABC's, 2001)
He has especially examined the role of the Jewish faith in the lives of his characters, who are pestered with passions, magic, asceticism and religious devotion. According to Singer, "A good writer is basically a story-teller - not a scholar or a redeemer of mankind ... (I. B. Singer)
Salvation and disaster - are separated only by the wing-beat of a butterfly (see Zen Buddhism, Heaven & Hell, History, etc)... (dali48)
Writers can stir the mind, but they can't direct it - Time changes things, but writers can't change anything ... (I. B. Singer)
My life was never the same after my mother died ... (S. Bellow)
They refuse to exchange their inner torment for the peace of mind - that comes with bourgeois propriety - or some kind of religious belief ... (Charles Simic in N.Y. Review of books, May 31, 2001)
Szymborska accords full support to her idea that no questions are of such significance - as those that are naive ... ( CNN, Polish poet)
