“...A friend has to be outside my reach, beyond my grasp. And there can be no friendship with someone whom I am not ready to betray: a friend is someone I can betray with love.”
Slavoj Žižek, Abercrombie and Fitch "Back to School" 2003 Catalog

“The proper way for the woman to test the man’s love is thus to “betray” him at a crucial moment in his career”
Slavoj Žižek, The Puppet and the Dwarf: The Perverse Core of Christianity

Joan Didion
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it […]”
Joan Didion, The White Album

Slavoj Žižek
“I like to search for class struggle in strange domains. For example it is clear that in classical Hollywood, the couple of vampires and zombies designates class struggle. Vampires are rich, they live among us. Zombies are the poor, living dead, ugly, stupid, attacking from outside. And it's the same with cats and dogs. Cats are lazy, evil, exploitative, dogs are faithful, they work hard, so if I were to be in government, I would tax having a cat, tax it really heavy.”
Slavoj Žižek

“we must bring
our own light
to the
darkness.”
