is one who only thinks and thus one who only exist as a thinking agent -on the basis of external codes of everyday signs.

For it would seem that neither consciousness nor unconsciousness nor willing or non-willing have ever existed. Within a system of designating fluctuations, there is only a discontinuity between silence and declarations in the agent. Inasmuch as exteriority is installed in the agent by the code of everyday signs, it is only on the basis of this code that the agent can make declarations or state opinions, think or not think, remain silent or break its silence. The agent thinks only as a product of this code. Now such a thinking agent exist only because of the greater or lesser resistance of the impulsive forces which constitutes the agent as a (corporeal) unity with respect to the code of everyday signs. By what measure can we say that the agent is 'conscious' of not speaking, of remaining silent, of acting or not acting, of deciding or remaining undecided' (Klossowski 'viscious' 37)
