Mafarka the futurist

"Here is the great novel boute-feu that I promised you.

Like our own soul, it is polyphonic. It is at the same time a lyrical song, an epic, an adventure novel and a drama.

I am the only one who dared to write this masterpiece, and it is with my hands that it will die one day, when the growing splendor of the world will have equalled its own and will have made it useless.

Whatever the inhabitants of Podagra and Paralysis say, it flaps in the wind of glory like a banner of immortality, on the highest peak of human thought. And my creative pride is satisfied.

Don't defend it: rather, look at it bursting out, like a well-loaded grenade, on the cracked heads of our contemporaries, and then dance, dance the warlike round, wading in the puddles of their stupidity, without listening to the monotonous lapping!"

-F.T. Marinetti, Mafarka the Futurist
