"Reading does not make anything, does not add anything; it lets be what is; it is freedom - not the kind of freedom that gives being or takes it away, but a liberty that receives, consents, says yes, can only say yes, and in the space opened by this yes, allows the work's amazing decision to be affirmed: that it is--and nothing more." [Maurice Blanchot, via Reading&Writing]
