“এক সন্ধ্যায় কলেজ স্ট্রিট কফিহাউসে একটা টেবিলের সামনে একা বসে বন্ধুদের জন্য অপেক্ষা করছি। হঠাৎ কবি বিনয় মজুমদার এসে মুখোমুখি বসে বললেন, 'হ্যাঁ মশাই, আমি যা জানি, তা-ই তো আমার জ্ঞান?' সায় দিতেই তিনি তেমনই হঠাৎ উঠে গেলেন। কিন্তু তখনই আমার চমক জেগেছিল। জ্ঞান জিনিসটার সরল ব্যাখ্যা আর কী হতে পারে! এইজন্যই কবিদের বলা হয় ক্রান্তদর্শী। স্তূপাকার জ্ঞানই আমাদের অভিজ্ঞতা। তার থেকে একটুখানি বেছে নিয়ে ভাঙচুর করার ব্যাপারটাই আসলে শিল্প এবং শেষাবধি তার পরিণাম একটা আখ্যান, যা গল্প (fiction) নামে পরিচিত।”
