“It is not a question of the meaning and reality of what is happening or what it means. Before asking what is that, what does that mean, before the quid, ‘first’, so to speak, requires that it happens, quod. That it happens always goes, so to speak, ‘ahead’ of the question of what happens. For that it happens, that is the question as an event; ‘afterwards’ only it refers to the event that has just happened. […] It happens, il arrive is ‘first’ a: Is it happening? Is it possible? Then the question mark is determined by the question: If this or that happens, is this or that, it is possible that this or that will happen”. Jean-François Lyotard
