Symptoms creator of desire are subject to contract. Leopold Sacher-Masoch, as it is shown in detail in Venus in Furs (1870), the dynamics of what its name from masochism, that is, the enjoyment of defer the satisfaction of desire, relying suspense, babbling and call waiting. Marguerite Duras when elucidates The Malady of Death (1982), in which it enjoys in the correspondence of desire and the impossibility correlation results in a fluid and neutral words reverberating. Each of these literary creations indicates that symptoms is "almost out of medicine, at a neutral point, a zero point, where artists, philosophers, doctors and patients can be found." (Deleuze).
