"Landlords, crooks, Druids, poseurs, all your efforts have been in vain:
we persist in relying on SURREALISM in our quest to bring the universe and
desire INTO ALIGNMENT... First and foremost, we guarantee that Surrealism
will no longer serve as a standard for the vainglorious, nor as a
springboard for the devious, nor as a Delphic oracle; it will no longer be
the philosopher's stone of the distracted, the battleground of the timid,
the pastime of the lazy, the intellectualism of the impotent, the draft of
blood of the "poet" or the draft of wine of the littérateur."- 7 June 1947,
Revolutionary Surrealists' Pamphlet, signed by Paul Bourgoignie, Achille
Chavre, Christian Dotremont, Marcel Havrenne, René Magritte, Marcel Mariën,
Paul Nougé and Louis Scutenaire
