p.59 there are many other things in the world that speak, and that are not language... Perhaps there is
some language articulating itself in a way that would not be verbal.
p.60 The notion of signatura, the signature, which is the image of an invisible and hidden property
among the visible properties of an individual.
p.61 it seems to me that Marx, Nietzsche, and Freud... have changed the
nature of the sign, and modified the way in which the sign in general could be interpreted.
p.63 beginning with these three men who now speak to us, interpretation at last became an endless
task... From the nineteenth century on, signs were linked in an inexhaustible as well as
infinite network, not because they rested on a resemblance without border, but because there are irreducible
gaps and openings.
The incompleteness of interpretation, the fact that it is always fragmented...
the further one goes in interpretation, the closer one approaches at the same time an absolutely dangerous region where interpretation
is not only going to find its points of no return but where it is going to disappear itself as interpretation, bringing perhaps
the disappearance of the interpreter himself.
p.64 In the works of Nietzsche also, it is clear that interpretation is always unfinished.
p.64 Each sign is in itself not the thing that presents itself to interpretation, but the interpretation
of other signs.
p.65 interpretation precedes the sign
p.66 signs are interpretations which try to justify themselves... interpretation finds itself before the
obligation of interpreting itself endlessly, of always correcting itself... The origin [principe] of interpretation
is nothing other than the interpreter
