"Works of art always spring from those who have faced the danger, gone to the very end of an experience, to the point beyond which no human being can go. The further one dares to go, the more decent, the more personal, the more unique a life becomes."

"Poets who favour vengeance or free food,
unaware that these are spent gods,

entreat the thunder quietly through their beards,
& hang themselves from a gas lamp in the street." -#Mallarme

"Thus, against the backdrop of the continuum, the monster provides an account, as though in caricature, of the genesis of differences, and the fossil recalls, in the uncertainty of its resemblances, the first buddings of identity." - #Foucault, 'The Order of Things'

"Man receives from nature the material to make signs, and those signs serve us first as a means of reaching agreement with others as to the choice of those that shall be retained, the values that they shall be recognized as possessing, & the rules for employing them." - #Foucault
