At the present moment, the security of coherent philosophy, which existed from Parmenides to Hegel, is lost.

Philosophic meditation is an accomplishment by which I attain Being and my own self, not impartial thinking which studies a subject with indifference.

Only in those moments when I exercise my freedom am I fully myself.

The soul of a landscape, the spirits of the elements, the genius of every place will be revealed to a loving view of nature.

To decide to become a philosopher seemed as foolish to me as to decide to become a poet.

Philosophy as practice does not mean its restriction to utility or applicability, that is, to what serves morality or produces serenity of soul.

I discovered that the study of past philosophers is of little use unless our own reality enters into it. Our reality alone allows the thinker's questions to become comprehensible.
