“I think there are a lot of similarities between writing and music. Music is much more direct and much more emotional and that's the level I want to be at when I'm writing. Writing is much more intellectual and indirect and abstract, in a way.” ThinkingWayWantWritingLevelsEmotionalMusic IsIntellectualDirectAbstractSimilarityIndirect Author:Karl Ove Knausgard
“I’m not interested in the words or the meaning of the words. I’m interested in disappearing in it completely, to not be aware of yourself at all. That’s the way music works for me. It’s purely emotional. It goes straight to the heart. There are no explanations. That’s just it.” WayHeartEmotionalDisappearExplanationNot Interested Author:Karl Ove Knausgard
