“What is most dangerous in violence is its rationality. Of course violence itself is terrible. But the deepest root of violence and its permanence come out of the form of the rationality we use. The idea had been that if we live in the world of reason, we can get rid of violence. This is quite wrong. Between violence and rationality there is no incompatibility.”

-Michel Foucault, (1996) [1980]. ‘Truth is in the future’. In Sylvère Lotringer (ed.) Foucault Live (Interviews, 1961-1984).
