(Regarding an old conversation of Mother's on "Savitri," noted down from memory by a young disciple.)
They’re so happy, so enthusiastic! Everyone comes and says, “Oh, how fine it is!” I thought, “How much must one err for people to find it fine! When one no longer errs, they no longer like it.” There you are.
And they want to publish it.

Soon afterwards, regarding a passage from the same text on “Savitri”:
Sri Aurobindo used to write at night, and in the night I would have the experience; in the morning he would read it to me and I would recognize my experience—I hadn’t said anything to him, he hadn’t said anything to me. Interesting…
But one always seems to be boasting, that’s the trouble. No, in reality, one can SAY a thing like this, but writing and publishing it is quite another matter.
