« What I used to look for in reading and what I can no longer find there as if it can no longer take me abroad, is in and on this meror that weaves and relaxes, untie and connects, that I meet it. There is the place said that both digs and animates all the others. »

« Donald Winnicott did not know the status of parent, he did not have to exercise what psychoanalysts like to call the "paternal function" (as if becoming a father, being a father, was a function!). Having had no children, he knew, like no other therapist, to connect with the hundreds of children he received. Winnicott or the child doctor. »

« Saying like Winnicott, even with humor, that you can be as creative in cooking eggs on the plate as Schumann composing a sonata, don't you find that a bit abusive? If I express an emotion, I don't create anything. I'm afraid Winnicott is a little fooled by his love for the child (and mother). Having said that - and again I reject the concept but acknowledge it - talking about creativity Winnicott reminds us that the world of our perceptions is dead letter as long as it is not animated by a look. »
