"Thinking begins only when we have come to know that reason, glorified for centuries, is the stiff-necked adversary of thought."

"To dwell is to garden."
"...Before considering the question that is seemingly always the most immediate one and the only urgent one, What shall we do? we ponder this: How must we think? For thinking is genuine activity, genuine taking a hand, if to take a hand means to lend a hand to...the coming to presence of Being."
"The Fuhrer alone is the present and future German reality and its law. Learn to know ever more deeply: from now on every single thing demands decision, and every action responsibility."
"Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one."
"As the ego cogito, subjectivity is the consciousness that represents something, relates this representation back to itself, and so gathers with itself."
"The human body is essentially something other than an animal organism."
"We still by no means think decisively enough about the essence of action."
"Language is the house of the truth of Being."
"Transcendence constitutes selfhood."
