“I would say, if you like, that the party is like an out-moded mathematics...that is to say, the mathematics of Euclid. We need to invent a non-Euclidian mathematics with respect to political discipline.”

“We pose only those questions whose answers are the pre-given conditions of the questions themselves.”

“Evil is the moment when I lack the strength to be true to the Good that compels me.”
