“Although it is true that this counterthought attests to an absolute solitude, it is an extremely populous solitude, like the desert itself, a solitude already intertwined with a people to come, one that invokes and awaits that people, existing only through it, though it is not yet here.”
Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari, A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia, translated by Brian Massumi, University of Minnesota Press, 1987, p. 377.”

“It’s just that . . . well, I like the night. And it’s a good place to hide.”
“Hide? From what?”
Stella inched away, making a face. “I come out here to practice, Mama. I’ve got stuff in my head, but I don’t know how to get it out. I try to write it down some“times, but I’m not very good at it. It’s like my brains are dumplings in somebody else’s soup.” She looked up toward the stars, but even the sky had turned murky.
Her mother hugged her closer. “I’ve talked to Gertrude Grayson a time or two,” she said gently.
Stella stiffened. Betrayed!
“She says you are the best thinker in the school.”
