Michel Foucault
“Visibility is a trap.”
Michel Foucault, Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“We are here to help each other get through this thing, whatever it is.”
Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country

Michel Foucault
“There are times in
life when the question of knowing if one can think differently
than one thinks, and perceive differently than one sees, is
absolutely necessary if one is to go on looking and reflecting
at all.”
Michel Foucault, The History of Sexuality, Volume 2: The Use of Pleasure

Martin Heidegger
“Body', 'soul', and 'spirit' may designate phenomenal domains which can be detached as themes for definite investigations; within certain limits their ontological indefiniteness may not be important. When, however, we come to the question of man's Being, this is not something we can simply compute by adding together those kinds of Being which body, soul, and spirit respectively possess--kinds of being whose nature has not as yet been determined. And even if we should attempt such an ontological procedure, some idea of the Being of the whole must be presupposed.”
Martin Heidegger, Being and Time

Michel Foucault
“From the idea that the self is not given to us, I think there is only one practical consequence: we have to create ourselves as a work of art.”
Michel Foucault
