“The friend is not another I, but an otherness immanent in selfness, a becoming other of the self. At the point at which I perceive my existence as pleasant, my perception is traversed by a concurrent perception that dislocates it and deports it towards the friend, towards the other self. Friendship is this desubjectivization at the very heart of the most intimate perception of self.”

“İçmek de bir tür anlatmaktı ona göre. Yudumunu alır, daha o an gözleri dalar, içtiği nesne üzerine kimse bu kadar uzun düşünemez.
Ve gençliğimde, kadınıyla, erkeğiyle herkesin bana tutkun olduğu o yıllarda, dedi, gelip buraya girdim, saplandım. Beni kurtarmak istediklerini sananlar oldu, kurtulmamak üzere geldiler, kurtulmamak üzere gittiler. Ve dünyanın bu çekici deliğinde, sanki yıllar sonra yeniden tutacağım şu ellerini sürekli yakaladım. Bırakırsam batarım sanma, ellerini tuta tuta nasıl battığımı seyret. En eski din de, en eski oyun da budur''.”

“This may be hard to believe, coming from a black man, but I’ve never stolen anything. Never cheated on my taxes or at cards. Never snuck into the movies or failed to give back the extra change to a drugstore cashier indifferent to the ways of mercantilism and minimum-wage expectations. I’ve never burgled a house. Held up a liquor store. Never boarded a crowded bus or subway car, sat in a seat reserved for the elderly, pulled out my gigantic penis and masturbated to satisfaction with a perverted, yet somehow crestfallen, look on my face. But here I am, in the cavernous chambers of the Supreme Court of the United States of America, my car illegally and somewhat ironically parked on Constitution Avenue, my hands cuffed and crossed behind my back, my right to remain silent long since waived and said goodbye to as I sit in a thickly padded chair that, much like this country, isn’t quite as comfortable as it looks.”
