I don't know what Deleuze meant, but to me, a guerrilla war within oneself seems impossible — at least if we're talking about the true Self, which is whole and indivisibl in its oneness with Reality :)

For Deleuze that was the way of philosophy, philosophy isn't a power according to him, but a guerrilla war inside ourselves. I like that, it's what I experience, all kinds of forces within, probably struggling and coping with power coming from outside.

Watched the Roland Garros (tennis) men's finals today.  From my inexpert opinion, I would say that there were some ups and downs (on both sides), but I was really impressed about how the top ranked no. 1 and no. 2 (who have both won slams before) managed to regroup with some amazing shots and mental strength to dial back in and not give up.  Over 5 hours on court.  Impressed by both.
