“Every man - every artist - climbs the stairway, in the tower of his perfection by fighting his duende…The true struggle is with duende…But there are neither maps nor discipline to help us find duende. We only know that he burns the blood like a poultice of broken glass, that he exhausts, that he rejects all the sweet geometry we have learned, that he smashes styles, that he leans on human pain with no consolation…With idea, sound or gesture, the duende enjoys fighting the creator on the very rim of the well…”
Federico Garcia Lorca, Play and Theory of Duende
