Snippets

"En volant des marchandises pour les donner, certains blousons noirs evitent cette ambiguite. Ils reproduisent a un niveau superieur la pratique du don qui a domine les societes archa'iques et que l'echange, en tant que formalisation des rapports sociaux sur la base d'un faible niveau de developpement des forces productives, est venu miner. Ils trouvent ainsi une conduite encore mieux adaptee a une societe qui se definit elle-meme comme societe de l'abondance, et amorcent pratiquement son depassement." --L'indépendance de la marchandise

"Oui la pensée de Marx est bien un critique de la vie quotidienne.", set in a text balloon in Ingres's Jupiter and Thetis (1811) painting
