André Gide
“It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.”
Andre Gide, Autumn Leaves

Michel Foucault
“People know what they do; frequently they know why they do what they do; but what they don't know is what what they do does.”
Michel Foucault, Madness and Civilization: A History of Insanity in the Age of Reason

Michel Foucault
“The work of an intellectual is not to mould the political will of others; it is, through the analyses that he does in his own field, to re-examine evidence and assumptions, to shake up habitual ways of working and thinking, to dissipate conventional familiarities, to re-evaluate rules and institutions and to participate in the formation of a political will (where he has his role as citizen to play).”
Michel Foucault
