Jacques Derrida

This smile I seem to come across a lot...

This time it belongs to Jacques Derrida, who is asked which philosopher he would like to be his mother (concerning the father, he has made his choice btw).





What I love about Derrida that at this point he is contemplating to be his own mother or even stranger giving birth to his own mother. And even stranger I sort of do relate.

The distinction between (male) philosophy and (female) thinking made me think of the fairy tale of  The Peasant's Wise Daughter.
