This article raises the event created by the enunciation of BrazilianSupreme Court minister Carlos Ayres Britto’s vote. Such vote refers to therecent (2011) homoaffective union issue in Brazil. The corpus of analysisof this work are the (in)direct citations from famous authors (Plato, MaxScheller, Descartes, Fernando Pessoa, Nietzsche, Hegel, Jung, CaetanoVeloso, Rui Barbosa, Spinoza, Sartre and Chico Xavier) brought intoplay in linguistic materiality. We discuss the possible effects of meaningresulting from the citations through the perspective of Discourse Analysisof French Orientation considering the relevant aspects of the conditionsof discourse production while exposing the effects of articulation betweenquotes and statements that circumscribe the vote, parallelisms et cetera.We also launch a brief look over the ethos of the discourse subject from thecitation’s effects of meaning. Among other avaliations and refl ections weconclude that the discourse has love as its major argument, confronting aprototypical Discursive Formation of the judiciary including the referencesto religious interdiscourses. For our analytic exercise we count speciallywith Possenti (2009, 2002), Eni Orlandi (2009, 2006), Foucault (2010,2009), Maingueneau (1997) and Pêcheux (2009), to constitute ourtheoretical support.
