Tentative d'épuisement d'un lieu parisien
Les miroirs feraient bien de réfléchir un peu plus avant de renvoyer les images.
Jean Cocteau, Le Sang d’un poète
It is with man as with commodities. Since he comes into the world neither with a looking glass in his hand, nor as a Fichtean philosopher, to whom ‘I am I’ is sufficient, man first sees and recognises himself in other men. Peter only establishes his own identity as a man by first comparing himself with Paul as being of like kind. And thereby Paul, just as he stands in his Pauline personality, becomes to Peter the type of the genus homo.
Marx, Capital, Volume I, Chapter One, Where Marx´s topsy-turvey world meets Carroll´s trough looking glass world
the sphere having been with all nations the emblem of eternity and infinity – a serpent swallowing its tail. To realize the meaning, however, the sphere must be thought of as seen from its centre. The field of vision or of thought is like a sphere whose radii proceed from one’s self in every direction, and extend out into space, opening up boundless vistas all around. It is the symbolical circle of Pascal and the Kabalists, ‘whose centre is everywhere and circumference nowhere’
Helena P. Blavatsky, The Secret Doctrine
“La naturaleza es una esfera infinita, cuyo centro está en todas partes y la circunferencia en ninguna”. Así publica Brunschvicg el texto, pero la edición crítica de Tourneur (París, 1941), que reproduce las tachaduras y vacilaciones del manuscrito, revela que Pascal empezó a escribir effroyable: “Una esfera espantosa, cuyo centro está en todas partes y la circunferencia en ninguna.
Quizá la historia universal es la historia de la diversa entonación de algunas metáforas.
Jorge Luis Borges, Otras Inquisiciones
