“expressions of respect and admiration merely leave one perplexed and disorientated. this is because one is robbed of one’s defences by the impossibility of rejecting or answering them (with an equivalent sign). It is, then, like being paralysed by an insulin jab. admiration is the intraveneous form of aggressiveness. this is why its so difficult to express or receive. if it is true that it is a passion, then its expression is of the order of the crime of passion.” -

baudrillard, fragments
