"I cannot classify the other, for the other……" — Roland Barthes

"I cannot classify the other, for the other is, precisely, Unique, the singular Image which has miraculously come to correspond to the speciality of my desire. The other is the figure of my truth, and cannot be imprisoned in any stereotype (which is the truth of others)."

— Roland Barthes
