All Real Living Is Meeting.

When I Confront A Human Being As My Thou And Speak The Basic Word I-thou To Him, Then He Is No Thing Among Things Nor Does He Consist Of Things. He Is No Longer He Or She, A Dot In The World Grid Of Space And Time, Nor A Condition To Be Experienced And Described, A Loose Bundle Of Named Qualities. Neighborless And Seamless, He Is Thou And Fills The Firmament. Not As If There Were Nothing But He; But Everything Else Lives In His Light.

In Philosophical Anthropology, ... Where The Subject Is Man In His Wholeness, The Investigator Cannot Content Himself, As In Anthropology As An Individual Science, With Considering Man As Another Part Of Nature And With Ignoring The Fact That He, The Investigator, Is Himself A Man And Experiences This Humanity In His Inner Experience In A Way That He Simply Cannot Experience Any Part Of Nature.

The World Is Not Comprehensible, But It Is Embraceable: Through The Embracing Of One Of Its Beings.

To Begin With Oneself But Not To End With Onself. To Start From Oneself But Not To Aim At Oneself.
