Many have this feeling, it is simply proof that each man by its singularity is able to write something new. Also, the philosopher Maria Zambrano said that the writing is always a new secret, but does not belong to writer. This video is particulary fantastic.

I feel the same way. There are things that bother me about myself before I fall asleep, adn before I wake up, that don't faze me when I am awake, I can ignore them, deal with them, etc. But in these states before and after sleep they are more prevelant.

I got a lot from this speech. I feel something like that too, and I think it's very valuable to hear intellectual authority-figures like Derrida talk about these things honestly.

Derrida smells of poo

refering to the commentary of tinalilithwell who cares anyhow

A commentary that I totally agree with.Especially the movie on Derrida sheds a strange light on him. I find the film mysifying in a negative way, with all that background music etc.Anyhow, Derrida didn't make the movie. Maybe future philosophers should learn to renounce projects turning, posthumously, into a sort of cult.And indeed, as under almost EVERY video, in which someone is displayed sharing a thought, most people act in their primitve impulse to tell their opinion and dislike.

I like that he had doubts in his mind about what he was doing. It shows he was just a man.

Your parody is even funnier than the real thing. I didn't think it was possible. You should do this for a living!

Consumate BS artist with a vocabulary. Strictly for the over sixties.
