Judith Butler Quotes

On The One Hand, Any Analysis Which Foregrounds One Vector Of Power Over Another Will Doubtless Become Vulnerable To Criticisms That It Not Only Ignores Or Devalues The Others, But That Its Own Constructions Depend On The Exclusion Of The Others In Order To Proceed. On The Other Hand, Any Analysis Which
pretends To Be Able To Encompass Every Vector Of Power Runs The Risk Of A Certain Epistemological Imperialism Which Consists In The Presupposition
that Any Given Writer Might Fully Stand For And Explain The Complexities Of Contemporary Power. No Author Or Text Can Offer Such A Reflection Of The World, And Those Who Claim To Offer Such Pictures Become Suspect By Virtue Of That Very Claim.
