"[....] the extraordinary is placed at the level of language, either by causing the magnificence of life to rise up from the deep by the 'magic' power of the right word, 'which does not create but invokes,' or by turning against the one who is writing, like a dagger in the hands of 'spirits.' The idea of spirits and magic explains nothing by itself; it is a warning that says: There is something mysterious here, you must be on your guard."

Maurice Blanchot
