#FoucaultFragments 46: "To discover the permanent weakness of desire as the secret root of oneself; to constitute oneself as a subject of knowledge by coming to see oneself as a subject of desire. This is an altogether different game of truth, a different technique of confession" 
« Découvrir comme un secret au fond de soi même, la faiblesse permanente du désir ; se constituer comme sujet de connaissance en se révélant à soi même comme sujet de désir,--cela relève d’un tout autre jeu de vérité. D’une tout autre technique d’aveu. » #Foucault @laBNF 62.4.67
Contrasting Stoic from Christian technologies, this fragment is from a French manuscript in preparation for his 1980 Howison lectures at Berkeley (delivered in English). #Foucault @laBNF 62.4.67
