Judith Butler Quotes

It Is Not As If An 'I' Exists Independently Over Here And Then Simply Loses A 'you' Over There, Especially If The Attachment To 'you' Is Part Of What Composes Who 'I' Am. If I Lose You, Under These Conditions, Then I Not Only Mourn The Loss, But I Become Inscrutable To Myself. Who 'am' I, Without You? When We Lose Some Of These Ties By Which We Are Constituted, We Do Not Know Who We Are Or What To Do. On One Level, I Think I Have Lost 'you' Only To Discover That 'I' Have Gone Missing As Well. At Another Level, Perhaps What I Have Lost 'in' You, That For Which I Have No Vocabulary, Is A Relationality That Is Composed Neither Exclusively Of Myself Nor You, But Is To Be Conceived As *the Tie* By Which Those Terms Are Differentiated And Related.
