What is everyone's favourite philosophical quote?
gpt
I don't know where this Deleuze quote is from (I think it's from an interview?) but it's on the back cover of one of his essay collections:

>If you don't admire something, if you don't love it, you have no reason to write a word about it. Spinoza or Nietzsche are philosophers whose critical and destructive powers are without equal, but this power always springs from affirmation, from joy, from a cult of affirmation and joy, from the exigency of life against those who would mutilate and mortify life. For me, that is philosophy itself.
