Truffaut on Rossellini
No one has described Rossellini’s art better than his student, Truffaut: “He describes impossible things. [. . .] It's fantastic because, having to renounce things in order to film, it's this sum of renunciations that create a masterpiece.”
Berardi on Fascism
“Human
will is now a sort of ersatz, a sort of hysterical surrogation, or
simulation. Fascism is rising as a desperate and demented rebellion
against the impotence of the will, against the subjugation of human
events to the automaton.” Franco 'Bifo' Berardi, A New Fascism?
ed. Susanne Pfeffer, London:
Koenig Books, 2018, p. 11.

Derrida (on Hegel) on fidelity
“The
vulgar translation of the Aufhebung: nothing coming from the
outside forbids you from cheating on your wife, but you no longer
want to since you love her. Then the permission for you to separate
from her, an authorization contrary to the duty of fidelity, remains
suspended (aufgehoben) as it were by the past, but you no
longer realize it since you no longer want to.” Derrida, Glas,
trans. John P. Leavey, Jr. and Richard Rand, U of Nebraska, 1986, p.
35.
