“What you have to do is enter the fiction of America, enter America as fiction. I…” — Jean Baudrillard

Governing today means giving acceptable signs of credibility. It is like advertising and it is the same effect that is achieved - commitment to a scenario.

You are born modern, you do not become so.

We shall never resolve the enigma of the relation between the negative foundations of greatness and that greatness itself.

The abjection of our political situation is the only true challenge today. Only facing up to this situation in all its desperation can help us get out of it.
