I think it was Roland Barthes who said "All reading is rereading." But I prefer the J Hillis Miller (no, me neither) version, "All reading is misreading." Jacques Derrida said that "There is nothing outside text". In that case I definitely overpaid for my video recorder. I think I stole that gag off Woody Allen.
