More quotes by Martin Heidegger
In no way can it be uttered, as can other things, which one can learn. Rather, from out of a full, co-existential dwelling with the thing itself - as when a spark, leaping from the fire, flares into light - so it happens, suddenly, in the soul, there to grow, alone with itself.
Martin Heidegger
We name time when we say: every thing has its time. This means: everything which actually is, every being comes and goes at the right time and remains for a time during the time allotted to it. Every thing has its time.
Martin Heidegger
The song still remains which names the land over which it sings.
Martin Heidegger
Thus phenomenology means αποφαινεσθαι τα φαινομενα -- to let that which shows itself be seen from itself in the very way in which it shows itself from itself.
Martin Heidegger
Whatever can be noted historically can be found within history.
Martin Heidegger
Time-space as commonly understood, in the sense of the distance measured between two time-points, is the result of time calculation.
Martin Heidegger
In order to remain silent Da-sein must have something to say.
Martin Heidegger
What is peddled about nowadays as philosophy, especially that of N.S. [National Socialism], but has nothing to do with the inner truth and greatness of that movement [namely the encounter between global technology and modern humanity] is nothing but fishing in that troubled sea of values and totalities.
Martin Heidegger
The question concerning technology is the question concerning the constellation in which revealing and concealing, in which the coming to presence of truth, comes to pass
Martin Heidegger
How one encounters reality is a choice.
Martin Heidegger
The German language speaks Being, while all the others merely speak of Being.
Martin Heidegger
Transcendence constitutes selfhood.
Martin Heidegger
Thinking begins only when we have come to know that reason, glorified for centuries, is the stiff-necked adversary of thought.
Martin Heidegger
We ourselves are the entities to be analyzed.
Martin Heidegger
We make a space inside ourselves, so that being can speak.
Martin Heidegger
Nietzsche ... does not shy from conscious exaggeration and one-sided formulations of his thought, believing that in this way he can most clearly set in relief what in his vision and in his inquiry is different from the run-of-the-mill.
Martin Heidegger
The possible ranks higher than the actual.
Martin Heidegger
Being is only Being for Dasein.
Martin Heidegger
In everything well known something worthy of thought still lurks.
Martin Heidegger
The domination of the public way in which things have been interpreted has already decided upon even the possibilities of being attuned, that is, about the basic way in which Da-sein lets itself be affected by the world. The they prescribes that attunement, it determines what and how one sees.
Martin Heidegger
