Deleuze a Big sur altere'd somewhat

Deleuze was at Big Sur once. he travelled to the US of A once. he had many passages of Kerouac and Henry Miller memorized by heart ~ This photo was taken by Jean Jacques Lebel _-I've altered it somewhat. __ In the Dosse doubled bio he remarks that Deleuze knew many passages from the work of Kerouac and Miller by heart . One of the funniest things to my mind is the english translation of Dialogues. In it The Subterraneans a small novel of Kerouacs is mistranslated back into English as The Underground Ones! it's a cute oversight on the part of the editor of that translation who did not think to use the proper english title . So translation then: and so its beauty . I love this quote of Deleuze's . and it reminds me of how Frank O'Hara always tried to put things positively. Not always an easy task!
But possible. ---------------------------------

---------------------------------- Speaking oF Henry Miller I recently stumbled across this 'death bed 'interview .&; Remarkable as always! He accuses the creator of 'this' world! as well he ought to have!. Wonderful! Isn't he just wonderful?

Yes yes Always Say Yes.

I cant say the word dying

I'm alive to the end ~ . I must say
I have enjoyed it thoroughly

It was wonderful

I had the love of people
their love
not their admiration
their deep love....

I 'm alive to the end....

And : The question of speed is important and also very complex. It doesn't mean the first in the race: you can be late through speed. Speed is to be caught in a becoming_ which is not a development or an evolution. One must be like a taxi, queue(ligne d'attente), line of flight, traffic jam, bottleneck, green and red lights, slightly paranoid,brushes with the police. To be an abstract and broken line, a zigzag which glides 'between'. The grass and speed. What you misnamed style just now_ charm or style_ is speed.

And :One only discovers worlds through a long, broken flight.

As for the method of deconstruction of texts I see clearly what it is, I admire it a lot, but it has nothing to do with my own method. I do not present myself as a commentator on texts.

For me, a text is merely a small cog in an extra-textual practice. It is not a question of commenting on the text by a method of deconstruction, or by a method of textual practice, or by other methods; it is a question of what use it has in an extra-textual practice that prolongs the text ..

How else?

How else can one write of those things which one doesn't know, or knows badly? It is precisely here that we imagine having something to say. We write only at the frontiers of our knowledge, at the border which separates our knowledge from our ignorance and transforms the one to the other.
Only in this manner are we resolved to write. To satisfy ignorance is to put off writing until tomorrow -or rather, to make it impossible. Perhaps writing was a relation to silence altogether more threatening that that, which is supposed to entertain with death.
