i've a ton (thx, lit program!) but still, this is particular one is 2 precious 2 me:
The archive: if we want to know what this will have meant, we will only know in the
times to come. Perhaps. Not tomorrow but in the times to come, later on or perhaps
never. A spectral messianicity is at work in the concept of the archive and ties it, like
religion, like history, like science itself, to a very singular experience of the promise. -- J. Derrida, from Archive Fever
