“Text means Tissue; but whereas hitherto we have always taken this
tissue as a product, a ready-made veil, behind which lies, more or less
hidden, meaning (truth), we are now emphasizing, in the tissue, the
generative idea that the text is made, is worked out in a perpetual
interweaving; lost in this tissue—this texture—the subject unmakes
himself, like a spider dissolving in the constructive secretions of its
web.”
