Jose Saramago , Portuguese writer
said about Cliches, Doubt, Heroes, Literary, Literature, Uncertainty...
"I never appreciated 'positive heroes' in literature. They are almost always cliches, copies of copies, until the model is exhausted. I prefer perplexity, doubt, uncertainty, not just because it provides a more 'productive' literary raw material, but because that is the way we humans really are."
