“What is an adjective? Nouns name the world. Verbs activate the names. Adjectives come from somewhere else. The word adjective (epitheton in Greek) is itself an adjective meaning 'placed on top', 'added', 'appended', 'foreign'. Adjectives seem fairly innocent additions, but look again. These small imported mechanisms are in charge of attaching everything in the world to its place in particularity. They are the latches of being.”

“Con toda seguridad no habrá una política del amor. Sin embargo, las acciones políticas comunican con el Eros, pues suponen el deseo común de otra forma de vida. El amor interrumpe la perspectiva del uno y hace surgir el mundo desde el punto de vista del otro, de la diferencia. Así, el Eros constituye una fuente de energía para la protesta política. Se manifiesta como aspiración revolucionaria a una sociedad completamente diferente. Es más, mantiene en pie la fidelidad a lo venidero.”

“The truth is always something that is told, not something that is known. If there were no speaking or writing, there would be no truth about anything. There would only be what is.”

“To be a good human being is to have a kind of openness to the world, an ability to trust uncertain things beyond your own control, that can lead you to be shattered in very extreme circumstances for which you were not to blame. That says something very important about the condition of the ethical life: that it is based on a trust in the uncertain and on a willingness to be exposed; it’s based on being more like a plant than like a jewel, something rather fragile, but whose very particular beauty is inseparable from that fragility.”
