“We must not suppose that philosophy and common sense - everyday practical concerns - will ever reside together peacefully. Philosophy is not only impractical, it is essentially antipractical. It opens up [...] questions and paths and directions which make practical living impossible. Heidegger quotes Nietzsche, "Philosophy is a voluntary living amid ice and mountain heights." We must never suppose, therefore, that philosophy 'leads to nothing.' It is true, Heidegger insists, that 'you can't do anything with philosophy.”

“Theists pretend that their inferences are akin to “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.” But they’re actual more like “where there’s smoke, there’s a dragon. And it’s using the plooms to talk to me.”
