Even the most elevated psychological understanding is not a loving understanding. - Karl Jaspers

For one wishing to philosophize, it is particular, indeed of crucial importance to ascertain the difference between the object cognition that is achieved in the sciences and the transcending thought that characterizes philosophy......which transcend[s] the limits of the knowable and of the world as a whole, so that through these limits we become aware of the phenomenality of empirical existence and hence of the Comprehensive nature of being, thus entering into the area of faith.

Thus those who are deluded into supposing that they possess being as such often endeavour to make man forget himself. Man is dissolved in fictions of being and yet these fictions themselves always conceal a possible road back to man; hidden dissatisfaction may lead to the recovery of the authentic seriousness which becomes real only in existential presence and casts off the ruinous attitude of those who take life as it is and do what they please.

إن الفلسفة قد تكون شعوريّة أو لا شعوريّة، واضحة أو مُبهمة، حسنة أو سيّئة، ولكنها في كل هذه الحالات لا تخرج عن كونها فلسفة. وكل من يَنبُذ الفلسفة، إنما يؤكد بذلك أن له فلسفته، دون أن يفطن هو نفسه إلى ذلك.
