It is because nothing is equal, because everything bathes in its difference, its dissimilarity and its inequality, even with itself, that everything returns – or rather, everything does not return. […] It is not the same which returns, it is not the similar which returns; rather, the Same is the returning of that which returns, – in other words, of the Different; the Similar is the returning of that which returns, – in other words, of the Dissimilar. The repetition is the same, but the same in so far as it is said uniquely of difference and the different. […] A single and same voice for the whole thousand-voiced multiple, a single and same Ocean for all the drops, a single clamour of Being for all beings: on condition that each being, each drop and each voice has reached the state of excess – in other words, the difference which displaces and disguises them and, in turning upon its mobile cusp, causes them to return.
Gilles Deleuze
