In gazing at, kissing or stroking these pages, the beholder is wholly in the wound of Christ. There is nothing but blood on the page; all external referents have been eliminated. […] In touching a representation of the wound, the devotee’s fingers imaginatively penetrated the threshold of Christ’s flesh in haptic imitation of Thomas the apostle: “Put in thy finger hither, and see my hands; and bring hither thyhand, and put it into my side; and be not faithless, but believing” (John 20:27).

Vibeke Olson on BL Egerton 1821, ff. 6v-7r, in Penetrating the Void: Picturing the Wound in Christʼs Side as a Performative Space

"It should be pointed out that metaphors, too, are sensori-motor evasions, and furnish us with something to say when we no longer know what to do." - Deleuze, Cinema 2: The Time-Image
