Noam Chomsky
“Language is a process of free creation; its laws and principles are fixed, but the manner in which the principles of generation are used is free and infinitely varied. Even the interpretation and use of words involves a process of free creation.”
Chomsky, Noam

Gilles Deleuze
“To become imperceptible oneself, to have dismantled love in order to become capable of loving. To have dismantled one's self in order finally to be alone and meet the true double at the other end of the line. A clandestine passenger on a motionless voyage. To become like everybody else; but this, precisely, is a becoming only for one who knows how to be nobody, to no longer be anybody. To paint oneself gray on gray.”
Gilles Deleuze, A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia

Roman Payne
“Wandering is the activity of the child, the passion of the genius; it is the discovery of the self, the discovery of the outside world, and the learning of how the self is both "at one with" and "separate from" the outside world. These discoveries are as fundamental to the soul as "learning to survive" is fundamental to the body. These discoveries are essential to realizing what it means to be human. To wander is to be alive.”
Roman Payne, The Love of Europa: Limited Time Edition

Paul Farmer
“The idea that some lives matter less is the root of all that is wrong with the world.”
Paul Farmer

Gilles Deleuze
“If you're trapped in the dream of the Other, you're fucked.”
Gilles Deleuze
