‘What’s your scene, man?’
‘Reification’.
‘Yeah? I guess that means pretty hard work with big books and piles of paper on a big table’
‘Nope. I drift. Mostly I just drift’.

--"La Retour de la Colonne Durutti" (1966) by André Bertrand, English translation from Ten Days that Shook the University

"-De quoi t’occupes-tu au juste ? Je ne sais pas bien.
-De la réification, répondit Gilles.
-C’est une grave étude, ajoutai-je.
-Oui, dit-il.
-Je vois, observa Carole admirative. C’est un travail très sérieux, avec de gros livres et beaucoup de papiers sur une grande table.
-Non, dit Gilles, je me promène. Principalement, je me promène."
--All the King's Horses (1960) by Michele Bernstein
