Images exist things themselves are images... Images constantly act on and react to one another, produce and consume. There is no difference between images, things and movement.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
Photography, if there is photography, is already snapped, already shot, in the very interior of things and for all points of space.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
In order for music to free itself, it will have to pass over to the other side - there where territories tremble, where the structures collapse, where the ethoses get mixed up, where a powerful song of the earth is unleashed, the great ritornelles that transmutes all the airs it carries away and makes return.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
Write, form a rhizome, increase your territory by deterritorialization, extend the line of flight to the point where it becomes an abstract machine covering the entire plane of consistency.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
Either it is the fold of the infinite, or the constant folds [replis] of finitude which curve the outside and constitute the inside.
Gilles Deleuze

Writing has nothing to do with meaning. It has to do with landsurveying and cartography, including the mapping of countries yet to come.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
According to Beckett's or Kafka's law, there is immobility beyond movement: beyond standing up, there is sitting down, and beyond sitting down, lying down, beyond which one finally dissipates.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
You never walk alone. Even the devil is the lord of flies.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
A tyrant institutionalises stupidity, but he is the first servant of his own system and the first to be installed within it.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
It's not easy to see things from the middle, rather than looking down on them from above or up at them from below, or from left to right or right to left: try it, you'll see that everything changes.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
A leftist government doesn't exist because being on the left has nothing to do with governments.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
What interests us in operations of striation and smoothing are precisely the passages or combinations: how the forces at work within space continually striate it, and how in the course of its striation it develops other forces and emits new smooth spaces.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
I believe strongly that philosophy has nothing to do with specialists.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
The philosopher creates, he doesn't reflect.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
Underneath all reason lies delirium and drift.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
The percept is the landscape before man, in the absence of man.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
Philosophy is not in a state of external reflection on other domains, but in a state of active and internal alliance with them, and it is neither more abstract nor more difficult.
Gilles Deleuze
Image
The plane of consistency is the abolition of all metaphor all that consists is Real.
Gilles Deleuze
