Hasty Conclusions

I should start this by saying the only part of Foucault that I have been able to get through is the intro. But Holy Hell, for only being 16 pages that took a really long time, and I understood nothing. It instantly reminded me of this quote by Paul Dirac - "The aim of science is to make difficult things understandable in a simpler way; the aim of poetry is to state simple things in an incomprehensible way. The two are incompatible" Maybe the book becomes less convoluted past the intro, I will know better tomorrow morning. But if it doesn't, I guess Foucault didn't get the message.
