"Sometimes I write any Greek letter, a theta or an omega, and I only have to turn the pen a little; here the letter takes a tail and becomes a fish and evokes in a second all the streams and all the rivers of the earth, all its freshness and its humidity (..) or the letter becomes a little bird, raises its tail, ruffles its feathers, puffs up, laughs and flies away. Well Narcissus, you probably don't care much about those letters? But I tell you, it is with them that God wrote the world."
