We Should Live Totally In The Face

Being-alone Is A Deficient Mode Of Being-with; Its Possibility Is A Proof For The Latter.

Agriculture Is Now A Motorized Food Industry, The Same Thing In Its Essence As The Production Of Corpses In The Gas Chambers And The Extermination Camps, The Same Thing As Blockades And The Reduction Of Countries To Famine, The Same Thing As The Manufacture Of Hydrogen Bombs.

The Domination Of The Public Way In Which Things Have Been Interpreted Has Already Decided Upon Even The Possibilities Of Being Attuned, That Is, About The Basic Way In Which Da-sein Lets Itself Be Affected By The World. The They Prescribes That Attunement, It Determines What And How One "sees.

To Think Being Itself Explicitly Requires Disregarding Being To The Extent That It Is Only Grounded And Interpreted In Terms Of Beings And For Beings As Their Ground, As In All Metaphysics.

And So Man, As Existing Transcendence Abounding In And Surpassing Toward Possibilities, Is A Creature Of Distance. Only Through The Primordial Distances He Establishes Toward All Being In His Transcendence Does A True Nearness To Things Flourish In Him.
