On Doors (8): The Art of Distances

"Every form-of-life tends to constitute a community, and as a community tends to constitute a world. Each world, when it thinks itself - when it grasps itself strategically in its play with other worlds - discovers that it is structured by a particular metaphysics which is, more than a system, a language, its language. When a world thinks itself, it becomes infectious. It knows the ethic it carries within, and it has mastered, within its domain, the art of distances."

-- Text from "Introduction to Civil War" by Tiqqun
