Thought for today:
“The primary word I–Thou can be spoken only with the whole being.
Concentration and fusion into the whole being can never take place through my
agency, nor can it ever take place without me. I become through my relation to
the Thou; as I become I, I say Thou.
“All real living is meeting.
“[…]
“No aim, no lust, and no
anticipation intervene between I and Thou. Desire itself is transformed as it plunges out of
its dream into the appearance. Every means is an obstacle. Only when every
means has collapsed does the meeting come about.” Martin Buber
