Julien Guadet defining beauty as a relation to the question of the conscious subject.
"Beauty is the splendor of the truth. Art is the means given to man to produce beauty; art is thus the pursuit of beauty in the truth and by the truth. In the arts of imitation, truth is nature: in the arts of creation, in architecture most of all, truth is less easily defined: nevertheless for me I would translate it by one word: consciousness. If for the painter and the sculpted truth is in the external world, for us it resides within ourselves."

Jacques Derrida
"Deconstruction: dismantling our excessive loyalty to any idea and learning to see the aspects of the truth that might lie buried in its opposite."
"Aporia: impass or puzzlement."
"Logocentrism: an overhasty naive devotion to reason, logic, and clear definition underpinned by a faith in language as the natural and best way to communicate."
-French Philosopher
