schizophrenic quotes

L'expe¤  rience†d'une femme e¤  crivain est comple'  tement schizophre¤  nique. Il faut toujours faire coupure entre les deux: d'une part, employer un langage qui n'est pas le no" t re†et la lutte qu'on me'  ne sur un autre plan, qui tend 'a casser tout  c° a, a'   essayer de faire a'   travers et dans le langage autre chose. The experience†of the woman writer is completely schizophrenic.One is always torn between two approaches: on the one hand, to use a language that is not ours†and on the other, the battle one fights to break all this up, in order to do something else through and in language.

-Wittig, Monique
Quoted inJean-Fran c° ois Josselin'Lettre   a' Sapho' in Le Nouvel Observateur (1973).
