“Michel Foucault says: “Where there is power, there is resistance, and […] this resistance is never in a position of exteriority in relation to power” (History of Sexuality I, The Will to Knowledge, 1976, p. 95)”

“Science has long been animated by the ideal of a contradiction-free world in which logical orders could merge with society, politics, culture and language.

Michi Knecht
“Contradiction is not primarily a problem to be solved but a motor we cannot do without.”
