Survival in the conventional sense of the term means to continue to live, but also to live after death.

I do not believe in pure idioms. I think there is naturally a desire, for whoever speaks or writes, to sign in an idiomatic, irreplaceable manner.

I’m no good for anything except taking the world apart and putting it together again (and I manage the latter less and less frequently).

The first problem of the media is posed by what does not get translated, or even published in the dominant political languages.

I speak only one language, and it is not my own.

Even if we're in a state of hopelessness, a sense of expectation is an integral part of our relationship to time. Hopelessness is possible only because we do hope that some good, loving someone could come. If that's what Heidegger meant, then I agree with him.

Such a caring for death, an awakening that keeps vigil over death, a conscience that looks death in the face, is another name for freedom.
