SURREALISM WILL USHER YOU INTO DEATH, WHICH IS A SECRET SOCIETY. IT WILL GLOVE YOUR HAND, BURYING THEREIN THE PROFOUND M WITH WHICH THE WORD MEMORY BEGINS. DO NOT FORGET TO MAKE PROPER ARRANGEMENTS FOR YOUR LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT: SPEAKING PERSONALLY, I ASK THAT I BE TAKEN TO THE CEMETERY IN A MOVING VAN. MAY MY FRIENDS DESTROY EVERY LAST COPY OF THE PRINTING OF THE SPEECH CONCERNING THE MODICUM OF REALITY.

~ ANDRÉ BRETON, THE SURREALIST MANIFESTO
