Quote of the day, yay!

'The very concept of expression presupposes indeed some separation within the subject, and along with that a whole metaphysics of the inside and outside, of the wordless pain within the monad and the moment in which, often cathartically, that "emotion" is then projected out and externalized, as gesture or cry, as desperate communication and the outward dramatization of inward feeling.'

-- Fredric Jameson, Postmodernism, or, the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism, Verso 1991
