"The most brutal and meaningful revolution to strike the world of music in
recent years did not germinate from debate on musical writing (serial or
other) but, much more profoundly, from the world of sounds themselves, in
other words in the sonoral universe that the composer is invited to
administrate."

— Tristan Murail, 'La Revolution des Sons Complexes', Darmst=
adter Beitrage
zur Neuen Musik, 1980, XVIII, pp. 77-92

"In our horizontal models of time and movement, our image of the sediments
of time, our expressions of 'down' through history and 'up' through
evolution, the vertical pole becomes the continuous present, the connecting
thread, the simultaneous, perpetual 'now' that we are living at this instant
and have always lived. It is the single point that when displaced becomes
the line, becomes the surface, becomes the solid forms of our world and
minds, and that without the imparted energy of movement (time) or the
direction of movement (space), becomes the point once more, a process
incremented by our breath as we each recapitulate its great form in the
course of our individual journey."

— Bill Viola, I Do Not Know What It Is I Am Like, 1986

"The first object I made when I came to New York was a box with sound, which
is a cube about eight inches on a side. I recorded the sound of making this
box and put a speaker in it so that it plays for three hours the sounds of
its being constructed."

— Interview with Robert Morris. Conducted by Paul Cummings, March 1=
0, 1968

"And if I went on listening to that far whisper, silent long since and which
I still hear, I would learn still more, about this. But I will listen no
longer, for the time being, to that far whisper, for I do not like it, I
fear it. But it is not a sound like the other sounds, that you listen to,
when you choose, and can sometimes silence, by going away or stopping your
ears, no, but it is a sound which begins to rustle in your head, without
your knowing how, or why. It's with your head you hear it, not your ears,
you can't stop it, but it stops itself, when it chooses. It makes no
difference therefore whether I listen to it or not, I shall hear it always,
no thunder can deliver me, until it stops."

— Samuel Beckett, Molloy, p. 40

"It is in the tranquillity of decomposition that I remember the long
confused emotion which was my life, and that I judge it, as it is said that
God will judge me, and with no less impertinence. To decompose is to live
too, I know, I know, don't torment me, but one sometimes forgets."

— Samuel Beckett, Molloy, p. 25

"A writing that refers only to itself and a writing that refers indefinitely
to some other writing might appear noncontradictory: the reflecting screen
never captures anything but writing, indefinitely, stopping nowhere, and
each reference still confines us within the element of reflection. Of
course. But the difficulty arises in the relation between the medium of
writing and the determination of each textual unit. It is necessary that
while referring each time to another text, to another determinate system,
each organism only refer to itself as a determinate structure, a structure
that is oper and closed at the same time."

— Jacques Derrida, Dissemination, p. 202
