"I don’t believe in the virtue of using language for ‘self expression.’ The language that interests me is the one that can actually destroy all the circular, enclosed, narcissistic forms of the subject and of oneself".— Michel Foucault
One of the most significant dialogues I've ever read .(Sade):CompassionNow Marat you are talking like an aristocratCompassion is the property of the privilegedclassesWhen the pitier lowers himselfto give to a beggarhe throbs with contemptTo protect his riches he pretends to be movedand his gift to the beggar amounts to no morethan a kick {lute chord}No Maratno small emotions pleaseYour feelings were never pettyFor you just as for meonly the most extreme actions matter.(Marat) :If I am extreme I am not extreme in the sameway as youAgainst Nature’s silence I use actionIn the vast indifference I invent a meaningI don’t watch unmoved I interveneand say that this and this are wrongand I work to alter them and improve themThe important thingis to pull yourself up by your own hairto turn yourself inside outand see the whole world with fresh eyes-----------------Marat/Sade Peter Weiss
