Juan Goytisolo quotes
" A contemporary artist can use the findings of all epochs and all styles, from the most primitive literary expressions up to the most refined products of the baroque. "

Juan Goytisolo
" And it is because a series of elements in Spanish life which operate today the same way as they did in the times of Blanco White made obvious my relationship with him, based on a similarity in Spain's condition. "

Juan Goytisolo
" And with each day that passed, the gulf broadened and my isolation became more accentuated. In such a situation, the discovery that my experience was not unique, that it had also been that of other Spanish intellectuals, became very important for me. "

Juan Goytisolo
" As I began to discover my own truth and endeavored to possess it with clarity, I became more and more alienated from that which my companions held, or professed to hold. "

Juan Goytisolo
" But the Spain which emerged around 1960, beginning with its economic miracle, created by the invasion of tourists, can no longer result in impassioned dedication on the part of its intellectuals, and even less on the part of foreign intellectuals. "

Juan Goytisolo
" Count Julian is at the same time a work of criticism and one of fiction, or, if you prefer, of critical praxis. "

Juan Goytisolo
" Count Julian is, simultaneously, a work of fiction and a work of criticism, which defies deliberately a tyrannical conception of genre. "

Juan Goytisolo
" For a country is not merely a piece of earth; it is, above all, a compendium of social, cultural, and historical factors which begin to acquire sense and order through the process of writing. "

Juan Goytisolo
" For many years I wrote regularly a series of articles and notes, some in Spanish, some in French, about Spanish political affairs. "

Juan Goytisolo
" I not only lived physically away from my native land, but the values and critical judgments of those closest to me became stranger and stranger. "

Juan Goytisolo
" In Count Julian I simply proposed to create a text which would allow for diverse levels of reading. "

Juan Goytisolo
" In Count Julian the process of being dispossessed and breaking with his homeland on the part of the narrator has already taken place. "

Juan Goytisolo
" In my opinion, the most significant works of the twentieth century are those that rise beyond the conceptual tyranny of genre; they are, at the same time, poetry, criticism, narrative, drama, etc. "

Juan Goytisolo
" In the Europe which was created by the Second World War, divided into two blocks, each in need of a revolution that would end the abuses and injustices of capitalism and the privileges of a bureaucratic caste, collective faith does not exist. "

Juan Goytisolo
" In times when religious or political faith or hope predominates, the writer functions totally in unison with society, and expresses society's feelings, beliefs, and hopes in perfect harmony. "
