More quotes by 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
Only where leader and led together bind each other in one destiny ... does true order grow.
Martin Heidegger
The human body is essentially something other than an animal organism.
Martin Heidegger
In order to remain silent Da-sein must have something to say.
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
But what is great can only begin great.
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
True time is four-dimensional.
Martin Heidegger
We do not have a body rather, we are bodily.
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
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
A man's first bond is that which ties him into the national community.
Martin Heidegger

Martin Heidegger
We should live totally in the face of the night and of the Evil.
Martin Heidegger
Dasein is a being that does not simply occur among other beings. Rather it is ontically distinguished by the fact that in its being this being is concerned about its very being. Thus it is constitutive of the being of Dasein to have, in its very being, a relation of being to this being.
Martin Heidegger
How one encounters reality is a choice.
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
The German language speaks Being, while all the others merely speak of Being.
Martin Heidegger
Technology is therefore no mere means. Technology is a way of revealing. If we give heed to this, then another whole realm for the essence of technology will open itself up to us. It is the realm of revealing, i.e., of truth
Martin Heidegger
This characteristic of Dasein's being this that it is is veiled in its whence and whither.
Martin Heidegger
