Faust, a Tragedy by Goethe |
|
The people on their part may
think that cognition is knowing all about things, but the philosopher
must say to himself: "When I analyze the process that is expressed in
the sentence, 'I think,' I find a whole series of daring assertions, the
argumentative proof of which would be difficult, perhaps impossible:
for instance, that it is _I_ who think, that there must necessarily be
something that thinks, that thinking is an activity and operation on the
part of a being who is thought of as a cause, that there is an 'ego,'
and finally, that it is already
determined
what is to be designated by
thinking--that I KNOW what thinking is.

Niezsche - Beyond Good and Evil |
|
His op'ning Muse sets not the World on fire,
And yet performs more than we can require:
Quickly you'l hear him celebrate the fame,
And future glory of the Roman Name;
Of Styx and Acheron describe the Floods,
And Caesars
wandring
in▪ th' Elysian Woods:
With Figures numberless his Story grace,
And every thing in beauteous Colours trace.
