Or rather, choosing chooses itself through me, and what 'I' choose is a choosing that is 'not defined by what it chooses but by the power that it possesses to be able to start afresh at every instant, of starting afresh itself, and in this way confirming itself by itself, by putting the whole stake back into play each time'. Just as a wholly affirmative throw of the dice cannot lose, so then 'the true choice, that which consists in choosing choice, is supposed to restore everything to us. It will enable us to rediscover everything, in the spirit of sacrifice, at the moment of the sacrifice.'

Deleuze, quoted by Hallward:
