Interpretation is a kind of deciphering, but to decipher is to cipher again. The movement only stops on a satisfaction.

Interpretation is about nothing other than to teach you to speak like the unconscious (i.e. To master resonance, allusion, implication, silence, quotation, revealing,. Etc.).

Love is a labyrinth of misunderstandings whose way out doesn't exist.

Love is always done from a feminine position. Loving feminises. That's why love is always a bit comical in a man. But if he lets himself get intimidated by ridicule, then in actual fact he's not very sure of his virility.

Love is always reciprocal. If I love you, it's because you're lovable -there's something in you that makes me love you you are implicated.

Love is grounded in the belief that by loving someone you'll get to a truth about yourself. We love the one that harbours the response, or a response, to our question: 'Who am I''.

Love is the little things, fetishes whose presence is indispensable to spark off the love process tiny particularities.

The Unconscious is a desire to be interpreted. It wants to be interpreted. It has a desire to make sense.

The Unconscious is its interpretation. Unconscious desire is paradoxically equivalent to its interpretation.

The Unconscious is not the inverse of consciousness, rather it is related to the function of speech in the field of language.

The Unconscious is nothing other than the discrepancy between what I want to say and what I do say.

The Unconscious is simply the act of interpretation such that *the goal of interpretation is simply to teach you to speak like the unconscious.

The Unconscious is the discrepancy between the wanting-to-say of mine and the wanting-to-say of the signifier.

The Unconscious is the discrepancy between the-wanting-to-say-of-mine for the wanting-to-say-of-that-very-thing-which-is-said.
