Gilles Deleuze
You never walk alone. Even the devil is the lord of flies.
Gilles Deleuze
Is it not first through the voice that one becomes animal?
Gilles Deleuze
Things never pass where you think, nor along the paths you think
Gilles Deleuze
It is always from the depths of its impotence that each power center draws its power, hence their extreme maliciousness, and vanity
Gilles Deleuze
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
Bring something incomprehensible into the world!
Gilles Deleuze
I believe strongly that philosophy has nothing to do with specialists.
Gilles Deleuze
Underneath all reason lies delirium and drift.
Gilles Deleuze
