The community is a subterranean affective layer and each one drinks the same water at this source and at from this wellspring which he is itself -- but without knowing it, without distinguishing between the self, the other, and the Basis. — Michel Henry, Phénoménologie matérielle, éd. PUF, 1990, p. 178
