T: And is not, then, the abnegation of this logic precisely a complement
to Lacan's ethic of psychoanalysis and of our duty to follow our desire?


Lacan bows to Freud who bows to Nietzsche who bows to Emerson. Emerson
quotes a Latin phrase in his essay, "Compensation":

Res nolunt diu male administrari (things refuse to be mismanaged long).

Anyone know a citation for this? Sounds like Cicero in one of his late
essays.
