More quotes by Martin Heidegger
The small are always dependent on the great they are small precisely because they think they are independent. The great thinker is one who can hear what is greatest in the work of other greats and who can transform it in an original manner.
Martin Heidegger
Time is not a thing, thus nothing which is, and yet it remains constant in its passing away without being something temporal like the beings in time.
Martin Heidegger
But what is great can only begin great.
Martin Heidegger
In order to remain silent Da-sein must have something to say.
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 make a space inside ourselves, so that being can speak.
Martin Heidegger
Philosophy will not be able to effect an immediate transformation of the present condition of the world. This is not only true of philosophy, but of all merely human thought and endeavor.
Martin Heidegger
The senses do not enable us to cognize any entity in its Being they merely serve to announce the ways in which 'external' Things within-the-world are useful or harmful for human creatures encumbered with bodies....they tell us nothing about entities in their Being.
Martin Heidegger
Only where leader and led together bind each other in one destiny ... does true order grow.
Martin Heidegger
We do not have a body rather, we are bodily.
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
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 critique of the highest values hitherto does not simply refute them or declare them invalid. It is rather a matter of displaying their origins as impositions which must affirm precisely what ought to be negated by the values established.
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
Time-space as commonly understood, in the sense of the distance measured between two time-points, is the result of time calculation.
Martin Heidegger
Man acts as though he were the shaper and master of language, while in fact language remains the master of man.
Martin Heidegger
Temporality temporalizes as a future which makes present in the process of having been.
Martin Heidegger
Form displays the relation [to beings] itself as the state of original comportment toward beings, the festive state in which the being itself in its essence is celebrated and thus for the first time placed in the open.
Martin Heidegger
To think is to confine yourself to a single thought that one day stands still like a star in the world's sky.
Martin Heidegger
Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one.
Martin Heidegger
