Another gem

Hey, now is my chance to make up for having written so little about my academic life this semester. This morning's struggle brought to you, as usual, by our pal Derrida:

An allegorical metonymy, too, which says something other than what is says and manifests the other in the open but nocturnal space of the agora - in its plus de lumiere: at once no more light, and greater light. It speaks the other and makes the other speak, for the other will have spoken first. It has no choice but to let the other speak, since it cannot make the other speak without the other having already spoken, without this trace of speech which comes from the other and which directs us to writing as much as to rhetoric. This trace results in speech always saying something other than what it says: it says the other who speaks "before" and "outside" it; it lets the other speak in the allegory. Whence the structure of the "rhetoric of temporality." But what defies the simple and "objective" logic of sets, what disrupts the simple inclusion of a part within the whole, is what recalls itself beyond interiorizing memory (Erinnerung), is what recalls itself to thought (Gedaechtnis) and thinks itself as a "part" which is greater than the "whole." It is the other as other, the non-totalizable trace which is in-adequate to itself and to the same.

I tried to cut it down, but then it makes even less sense....
