Quoting My Readings

"Symbols and symbolisms are much-discussed topics, but they are rarely discussed intelligently. It is too often forgotten that some if not all symbols had a material and concrete existence before coming to symbolise anything." The Production of Space, Henri Lefebvre

"'Language should be tortured to tell the truth.' It should be twisted, denaturalised, extended, condensed, cut, and reunited, made to work against itself. Language as the ' big Other' is not an agent of wisdom to whose message we should attune ourselves, but a place of cruel indifference and stupidity. The most elementary form of torturing one's language is called poetry." The Poetic Torture-House of Language, Slavoj Žižek
