The mind which plunges into Surrealism, relives with burning excitement the best part of childhood.
ANDRE BRETON, Surrealist Manifesto, 1924
One can understand why Surrealism was not afraid to make for itself a tenet of total revolt, complete insubordination, of sabotage according to rule, and why it still expects nothing save from violence. The simplest Surrealist act consists of dashing down the street, pistol in hand, and firing blindly, as fast as you can pull the trigger, into the crowd.
