I tend to agree - anybody care to change the subject? I have always thought
Heidegger's remark denken ist danken (thinking is thanking) is pretty
remarkable. Actually, it isn't Heidegger's own, but a 17th century Pietist
quote. At any rate, it brings an entirely new meaning to thinking and
certainly calls into question what much philosophy has relied on over the
years, i.e., logical prose that seems more tyrannical than anything else.
