The first study for the man who wants to be a poet is knowledge of himself, complete: he searches for his soul, he inspects it, he puts it to the test, he learns it. As soon as he has learned it, he must cultivate it! I say that one must be a seer, make oneself a seer. The poet becomes a seer through a long, immense, and reasoned derangement of all the senses. All shapes of love suffering, madness. He searches himself, he exhausts all poisons in himself, to keep only the quintessences. Ineffable torture where he needs all his faith, all his superhuman strength, where he becomes among all men the great patient, the great criminal, the great accursed one--and the supreme Scholar! For he reaches the unknown! ....So the poet is actually a thief of Fire!”

– Victor HugoRate it:

The first technology was good and I enjoyed the the book as a whole but the second tetralogy gradually seem to to ramble with sexual visuals but we're not very sane because as it got into the second book of that cat trilogy I suddenly realised that he wasn't really making much sense and I suddenly found myself being rather disappointed because the last thing I wanted to do was to find out that he was not mentally fit and although I'm not a psychologist professionally I've studied enough psychology to be able to tell when somebody is mentally unfit and I'm probably mentally unfit myself to some degree but not to that degree and impact has become a a celibate through an obsession of hygiene. I hope I'm wrong but I think I might well be right about him and I would like to know if there's any evidence that would gainsay what I have just said and will be left forever answer why he seemed to end up babbling rather than writing in that last book which incidentally I'm afraid I threw out because I didn't really like the back but I felt this feeling! But I knew I could never read it again!

The first time I was nominated, I didn't know anything about the Oscars. That was almost 15 years ago. I just did Oscar week and enjoyed it very much because I was with my mum.
