Athanasius	Sep 17 2007 11:11 AM “Sólo buscamos la verdad cuando estamos determinados a hacerlo en función de una situación concreta, cuando sufrimos una especie de violencia que nos empuja a esta búsqueda ¿Quién busca la verdad? El celoso bajo la presión de las mentiras del amado. Siempre se produce la violencia de un signo que nos obliga a buscar, que nos arrebata la paz. La verdad no se encuentra por afinidad, ni buena voluntad, sino que se manifiesta por signos involuntarios”.
mandel	Aug 23 2007 5:28 PM What shall I say??!!! You were at the right time in the right place in my life!! Thanx. Kindest reagards from Switzerland, Amanda
Duy	Aug 23 2007 8:54 PM Thanks for the add! Why is it when Karl Marx comes up in classroom discussion that someone has to recall the failures of Mai, 1968, as though communism were responsible for the melt down in Latin America, Iraq, the child armies in Africa, and the bizarre path of development in China, left dependent on an American market addicted to cheap Chinese credit? And then follows the inevitable critique of Althusser’s ISA article, the undisputed authority on all matters of Marx. It was the collapse of the Soviet Empire that helped stoke the global market for guns and murder supplies, left with a vast, useless arsenal with the end of the Cold War. Because even intellectuals must have their rituals and stupid habits, and besides it worked at the conference on psycho-analysis. Where is Madeleine Klein when you need her to fix the budget? Because literary critics can’t read a newspaper, because the world is a priori a play on words. You’ll all become professors one day, and perpetuate your stupidity, until the wheels finally stop turning, and all discourse returns into dust.

Jeanne	Jul 31 2007 8:12 AM Thank you for trying to think the differences that we need to achieve. I hope I will have the opportunity to translate one of your books into french one day (I am a friend of the EPEL in Paris and studied philosophy). Best regards.
Elin	Jul 9 2007 10:35 AM Thanks for the friendship! And for challenging and changing the way I think.

Yusuf: The Horripilating Houdini!	Apr 14 2007 10:23 PM FYI: I sent the following message to the owner of this page: "is there a way to make this page more interactive, ie post events calendar to show where she is going to be, list the books she's written, or maybe even post some bulletins with quotes from her books or random news that would concern your friends and potential readers? this site has a lot of potential, and it would be nice to see some cool things happen with it. it would be easy to get a hold of this information, and if you are unable to get it, im sure plenty of people would be willing to help (myself included)."

L.C.O	Apr 3 2007 2:46 PM Thank you. You are brilliant. Western society?? driven by appearances. I dont know whether its quite ready to undergo a rhetorical/perceptual re-evolution.
Dr. Junk	Apr 2 2007 3:18 AM Thank you. T.
Gretchen	Mar 22 2007 10:59 PM Hey -Sorry for the two "T"'s in Butler...but it is late...
Gretchen	Mar 22 2007 10:55 PM Ey Mrs. Buttler, thanx for being virtual, totally ineffectual related...I study Sociology and work as TA at the University, and I like the way you build your thoughts, but we have a terrible Gender Department at our University. The most Sociologists are really boring. I have to write my final exame, and I don't have any idea about what...no human behavior that Sociologists or Psychologists or Philosophers haven't already talked about, everything is so boring and always the same theories are getting used (1000 times Bourdieu, Foucault, Weber, Turner, Durkheim, Bla Bla..) my intrest level is dropping...I try so hard to find something really interesting to write about...help me!!! wish you good times and come to our boring University and give a good lecture!(I mean really!Come!We already had a lot of Professors from Yale here for a semester...and a lot of old Professors like Luckmann, Eisenstadt, Lord Dahrendorf etc. So if you want to come...come!) there is no other way! Best Regards your Fräulein Gretchen
lalamoon	Mar 20 2007 1:14 PM Thanks for the add Ms Butler. I'd like to correspond with you, if this is the proper place, as I am currently working on a PhD on "Language,rhetoric and gender in the English Renaissance theater", and have been using some of your books in my research. I am particularly interested in the notion that "gender is an imitation without an origin", if I'm quoting accurately.
Tim	Mar 7 2007 8:50 PM Thank you.
projection of jake	Feb 22 2007 9:49 PM Happy Early Birthday Judy! Another year to challenge: 1. The authority of culture and the subsequent subjective passiveness of the message receiver... and... 2. The hegemonic relations of mass media and society! Don't do anything I wouldn't do!
melamar	Feb 13 2007 11:54 PM thank you very much! thank you for not only helping me and so many people all around the world to learn to analize where we stand but also to learn how to change our position and our life through this knowledge in better! and thanks a lot for adding me! mel

Yusuf: The Horripilating Houdini!	Feb 11 2007 7:04 PM Does anyone think it would be fun to start a Judith Butler calender so everyone knows where Butler is going to be give lectures and/or doing cool stuff?
Ruby	Feb 10 2007 5:53 PM remember the time we were in the same elevator together in dwinelle hall at berkeley? of course you don't. prof coffeen introduced us. you said, "hello.'' i said something back but i'm sure you didn't understand what with that spontaneous stutter and all. i was supposed to continue walking with you two, but i got so nervous i practically crapped my pants so i stayed behind in the elevator. my prof noticed and turned to ask what i was doing. i pretended the elevator doors closed and it was too late to do anything. you make my knees weak. and thanks for all those lectures in rhetoric 103b. plus, you look uncannily like my brother. i heart you.
