“There are everywhere such resonances produced by the body when it is touched, like ‘moans’ and sounds of love, cries breaking open the text that they make proliferate around them, enunciative gaps in a syntagmatic organisation of statements … the linguistic analogues of an erection, or of a nameless pain, or of tears: voices without language, enunciations flowing from the remembering and opaque body … an aphasic enunciation of what appears without one’s knowing where it came from … without one’s knowing how it could be said except through the other’s voice.”

- The Practice of Everyday Life, Michel de Certeau
