When I write, I can very well spare both the company and the remembrance of books, lest they should interrupt my progress; and also, in truth, the best authors too much humble and discourage me:
Idazten dudalarik, ongi nago liburuen lagungo eta oroimenik gabe, neure moldea eten dezaten beldurrez. Hainbat non, egiazki, autore onek sobera apaltzen bainaute eta kuraia hausten.
