Anti-Semitism is the rumour about the Jews.

The thought that murders the wish that fathered it will be overtaken by the revenge of stupidity

There are no more ideologies in the authentic sense of false consciousness, only advertisements for the world through its duplication and the provocative lie which does not seek belief but commands silence.

Life has changed into a timeless succession of shocks, interspaced with empty, paralysed intervals.

Truth is inseperable from the illusory belief that from the figures of the unreal one day, in spite of all, real deliverance will come.

The idea that after this war life will continue 'normally' or even that culture might be 'rebuilt' - as if the rebuilding of culture were not already its negation - is idiotic.

Life has become the ideology of its own absence.
