“language, for the individual consciousness, lies on the bordering between oneself and the other. The word in language is half someone else's. It becomes "one's own" only when the speaker populates it with his own intention. . . . Prior to this moment of appropriation, the word does not exist in a neutral and impersonal language (it is not, after all, out of a dictionary that the speaker gets his words!), but rather it exists in other people's mouths. in other people's contexts, serving other people's intentions: it is from there that one must take the word, and make it one's own.”

“All our work, our whole life is a matter of semantics, because words are the tools with which we work, the material out of which laws are made, out of which the Constitution was written. Everything depends on our understanding of them.”
