Letter "R" » Roland Barthes Quotes
«What the public wants is the image of passion, not passion itself.»
Author: Roland Barthes (Critic) | About: Passion
«To try to write love is to confront the muck of language: that region of hysteria where language is both too much and too little, excessive and impoverished.»
«To hide a passion totally (or even to hide, more simply, its excess) is inconceivable: not because the human subject is too weak, but because passion is in essence made to be seen: the hiding must be seen: I want you to know that I am hiding something from you, that is the active paradox I must resolve: at one and the same time it must be known and not known: I want you to know that I don't want to show my feelings: that is the message I address to the other.»
«Language is a skin: I rub my language against the other. It is as if I had words instead of fingers, or fingers at the tip of my words. My language trembles with desire.»
Author: Roland Barthes (Critic) | About: Language | Keywords: rub, tip, trembles
«Literature is the question minus the answer.»
Author: Roland Barthes (Critic) | About: Literature | Keywords: minus
«Myth is neither a lie nor a confession: it is an inflexion.»
Author: Roland Barthes (Critic) | Keywords: confession, inflexion, myth
«A photograph is always invisible, it is not it that we see.»
«The photographic image... is a message without a code.»
Author: Roland Barthes (Critic) | Keywords: code, photographic
«The bastard form of mass culture is humiliated repetition... always new books, new programs, new films, news items, but always the same meaning.»
«I have tried to be as eclectic as I possibly can with my professional life, and so far it's been pretty fun.»
