Sadder than destitution, sadder than a beggar is the man who eats alone in public. Nothing more contradicts the laws of man or beast, for animals always do each other the honor of sharing or disputing each other's food.

A negative judgment gives you more satisfaction than praise, provided it smacks of jealousy.Jean Baudrillard
The liberated man is not the one who is freed in his ideal reality, his inner truth, or his transparency he is the man who changes spaces, who circulates, who changes sex, clothes, and habits according to fashion, rather than morality, and who changes opinions not as his conscience dictates but in response to opinion polls.
Jean Baudrillard
Deep down, no one really believes they have a right to live. But this death sentence generally stays tucked away, hidden beneath the difficulty of living. If that difficulty is removed from time to time, death is suddenly there, unintelligibly.
Jean Baudrillard
The era of the political was one of anomie crisis, violence, madness and revolution. The era of the trans-political is that of anomaly an aberration of no consequence, contemporaneous with the event of no consequence.
Jean Baudrillard
A society which allows an abominable event to burgeon from its dung heap and grow on its surface is like a man who lets a fly crawl unheeded across his face or saliva dribble from his mouth -- either epileptic or dead.
Jean Baudrillard
It is always the same: once you are liberated, you are forced to ask who you are.
Jean Baudrillard
