Only as an individual can man become a philosopher (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Everything depends therefore on encountering thought at its source. Such thought is the reality of man’s being, which achieved consciousness and understanding of itself through it. (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
The Socratic teacher turns his students away from himself and back onto themselves; he hides in paradoxes, makes himself inaccessible. The intimate relationship between student and teacher here is not one of submission, but of a contest for truth (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
The moment is the sole reality (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Philosophy is tested and characterised by the way in which it appropriates its history (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Philosophy can only be approached with the most concrete comprehension (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
As a universal history of philosophy, the history of philosophy must become one great unity (Karl Jaspers Quotes)

Nietzsche, driven by the absolute demand of his existential truthfulness, could not abide the bourgeois world, even when its representative had human nobility (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Man is always something more than what he knows of himself. He is not what he is simply once and for all, but is a process (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
It is the search for the truth, not possession of the truth which is the way of philosophy. Its questions are more relevant than its answers, and every answer becomes a new question (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
The study of law left me unsatisfied, because I did not know the aspects of life which it serves. I perceived only the intricate mental juggling with fictions that did not interest me (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
What makes us afraid is our great freedom in the face of the emptiness that has still to be filled (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
The soul of a landscape, the spirits of the elements, the genius of every place will be revealed to a loving view of nature (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
It has become obligatory to fulfil a function which shall in some way be regarded as useful to the masses... Even an articulated mass always tends to become unspiritual and inhuman. It is life without existence, superstition without faith. It may stamp all flat; it is disinclined to tolerate independence and greatness, but prone to constrain people to become as automatic as ants (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Greatness of mind becomes an object of love only when the power at work in it itself has a noble character (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
On the question of the world as a whole, science founders. For scientific knowledge the world lies in fragments, the more so the more precise our scientific knowledge becomes (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
What is meaningful cannot in fact be isolated…. We achieve understanding within a circular movement from particular facts to the whole that includes them and back again from the whole thus reached to the particular significant facts (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
When language is used without true significance, it loses its purpose as a means of communication and becomes an end in itself (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
To decide to become a philosopher seemed as foolish to me as to decide to become a poet (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
The history of philosophy is not, like the history of the sciences, to be studied with the intellect alone. That which is receptive in us and that which impinges upon us from history is the reality of man's being, unfolding itself in thought (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
The more determinedly I exist, as myself, within the conditions of the time, the more clearly I shall hear the language of the past, the nearer I shall feel the glow of its life (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
The great philosophers and the great works are standards for the selection of what is essential. Everything that we do in studying the history of philosophy ultimately serves their better understanding (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Reason is like an open secret that can become known to anyone at any time; it is the quiet space into which everyone can enter through his own thought (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Philosophy as practice does not mean its restriction to utility or applicability, that is, to what serves morality or produces serenity of soul (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
My own being can be judged by the depths I reach in making these historical origins my own (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
I discovered that the study of past philosophers is of little use unless our own reality enters into it. Our reality alone allows the thinker’s questions to become comprehensible (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
I began the study of medicine, impelled by a desire for knowledge of facts and of man. The resolution to do disciplined work tied me to both laboratory and clinic for a long time to come (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Everything depends therefore on encountering thought at its source. Such thought is the reality of man’s being, which achieved consciousness and understanding of itself through it (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
Even scientific knowledge, if there is anything to it, is not a random observation of random objects; for the critical objectivity of significant knowledge is attained as a practice only philosophically in inner action (Karl Jaspers Quotes)
