“Pérha, whose name meant “prayer”, came from the coastlands and spoke in a strange accent. She pronounced Deghóm’s name in her own tongue: ‘Demagóma.’ Deghóm had heard that accent all her life.

It would have never occurred to me to lash up what I wanted to express into a waist coat of idiotically trimmed up film plots for the audience: with their meticulous and dictarioral logic and continutity. The attempt to wedge Paganini into the usual form of a movie, would have resulted in immuring him alive. For he did live – in me.”
