The Lacanian Author Quotes

“At first the creative mind submits to its entry into the symbolic register and gets itself structured like everyone else. Then he balks at a fateful moment which becomes a turning point in the history of his mental growth. From the entry into the imaginary order where he acknowledges his ego and then to the symbolic order where he recognizes his place in the society and finally in his de-symbolization or a refusal to obey the Law that is the rules of the world of symbols, a creative genius is born.”

observation has been noted and that is enough to give it a meaning, a subjective meaning, a meaning exclusively important for the navigator himself.”

“The author is impacted by a hidden insistence that takes the shape of different combinations each time a
