“We feel free because we lack the very language to articulate our unfreedom.”
Slavoj Žižek, Welcome to the Desert of the Real: Five Essays on September 11 and Related Dates

Søren Kierkegaard
“It is really true what philosophy tells us, that life must be understood backwards. But with this, one forgets the second proposition, that it must be lived forwards. A proposition which, the more it is subjected to careful thought, the more it ends up concluding precisely that life at any given moment cannot really ever be fully understood; exactly because there is no single moment where time stops completely in order for me to take position [to do this]: going backwards.”
Søren Kierkegaard, Journals and Papers

Byung-Chul Han
“Eros'un Istırabı

Bugün aşk cinselliğe, kendisi de başarı emrine tabi olan cinselliğe dönüşerek pozitif bir hal alıyor. Seks başarmaktır. Ve seksilik çoğaltılması gereken bir sermayedir. Beden sergilenme değeriyle bir metaya benzer" (20).

Her şeyin mümkün olduğu, her şeyin insiyatif ve projeden ibaret olduğu, Becerebilme'nin egemenliğindeki başarı toplumunda ise incinme ve tutku olarak aşka geçit yoktur. (21)”
Byung-Chul Han, The Agony of Eros

“Words are never 'only words'; they matter because they define the contours of what we can do.”
Slavoj Žižek

Slavoj Žižek
“Yeah, because I'm extremely romantic here. You know what is my fear? This postmodern, permissive, pragmatic etiquette towards sex. It's horrible. They claim sex is healthy; it's good for the heart, for blood circulation, it relaxes you. They even go into how kissing is also good because it develops the muscles here – this is horrible, my God! It's no longer that absolute passion. I like this idea of sex as part of love, you know: 'I'm ready to sell my mother into slavery just to fuck you for ever.' There is something nice, transcendent, about it. I remain incurably romantic.”
Slavoj Žižek
