xxi Every spoken word appears to me as a visible trace of the invisible
significative intention which is constituting it
p.39 What we have learned from Saussure is that, taken singly, signs do
not signify anything, and that each one of them does not so much express a meaning as mark a divergence of meaning between
itself and other signs.
p.72 A man is judged by neither intention nor fact but by his success in making values become facts.
p.131 The "healthy" man is not so much the one who has eliminated his contradictions as the one who makes
use of them and drags them into his vital labors.
p.184 Duration is not simply change, becoming, mobility; it is being in the vital, active sense
of the term. Time is not put in place of being; it is understood as being coming to be, and now it is the whole of
being which must be approached from the side of time.
