Now they have come to the place where their faith can no longer feed on the bread of repression and violence. They ask for the bread of liberty of public equality and public responsibility. It must not be denied them.

I am not ridiculing verbal mechanisms dreams or repressions as origins of poetry all three of them and more besides may have a great deal to do with it.

I believe dreams represent the purest form of fantasy we unleash through our subconscious. They represent the truest freedom we can experience. Totally unrepressed and totally creative.

And I think my sexuality was heavily repressed by the church by the you know the design of the mortal sins.

Teachers believe they have a gift for giving it drives them with the same irrepressible drive that drives others to create a work of art or a market or a building.

If repression has indeed been the fundamental link between power knowledge and sexuality since the classical age it stands to reason that we will not be able to free ourselves from it except at a considerable cost.
