Martin Heidegger
“For words and language are not wrappings in which things are packed for the commerce of those who write and speak. It is in words and language that things first come into being and are.”
Martin Heidegger, Introduction to Metaphysics

Friedrich Nietzsche
“…art owes its continuous evolution to the Apollonian-Dionysian duality…. The two creative tendencies developed alongside one another, usually in fierce opposition, each by its taunts forcing the other to more energetic production, both perpetuating in a discordant concord the agony which the term art but feebly denominates: until at last, by the thaumaturgy (magic or miracle) of a Hellenic act of will, the pair accepted the yoke of marriage and, in this condition, begot Attic tragedy, which exhibits the salient feature of both parents.”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Georg Simmel
“The calculative exactness of practical life which the money economy has brought about corresponds to the ideal of natural science: to transform the world by mathematical formulas. Only money economy has filled the days of so many people with weighing, calculating, with numerical determinations, with a reduction of qualitative values to quantitative ones.”
Georg Simmel, The Sociology of Georg Simmel
