From a book by John Christie, containing some correspondence between Christie and John Berger, a quote from Joseph Beuys in conversation with Bernice Rose:

"In discussing Claude Levi-Strauss, Guy Davenport has noted that for modern man chaos is outside, but primitive man sees disorder as internal and the outer world as harmony, he disciplines himself in order not to contaminate the world."

the book itself is warm and astonishing in its friendly elegance.
