"You have often accused me of not forming any relationship with your poems. Please, I ask you to abandon this notion – and I say that not because of this poem alone, but also for the others. Sometimes I live and breathe only through them.”

Ingeborg Bachmann to Paul Celan, Vienna, 10 November-16 December 1957, in Correspondence.
