English to German: The Philosopher's Path: Seeking Enlightenment and Independence Detailed field: Other
Source text - English "In politics, my dear, you know as well as Ido, there are no men, but ideas; no feelings, but interests; in politics you don't kill a man: you remove an obstacle, that's all."
"Learning is not knowing; there are the knowing and the learned: it is memory that makes some, it is philosophy that makes others.
- But can't one learn philosophy?
- Philosophy cannot be learned; philosophy is the union of the sciences acquired with the engineer who applies them: philosophy is the shining cloud on which Christ set foot in order to ascend to heaven".
"I rang for light, but no one came; so I resolved to serve myself. It was a philosopher's habit that I would have to take up."
"Hatred is blind, anger is dazed, and he who pours vengeance may drink a bitter drink."
"Take two sheep to the butcher shop, two oxen to the slaughterhouse, and make one of them understand that his companion will not die, the sheep will bleat with joy, the ox will bellow with pleasure; but the man, the man whom God made in his own image, the man on whom God has imposed as his first, his only, his supreme law, the love of his neighbor, the man to whom God has given a voice to express his thoughts, what will be his first cry when he learns that his companion is saved? A blasphemy."
Translation - German "In der Politik, meine Lieben, wisst ihr genauso gut wie ich, gibt es keine Menschen, sondern Ideen; keine Gefühle, sondern nteressen; in der Politik tötet man keinen Menschen: man beseitigt ein Hindernis, das ist alles."
"Lernen ist nicht Wissen; es gibt das Wissen und das Erlernte: es ist das Gedächtnis, das Einige macht, es ist die Philosophie, die Andere macht. "
Aber kann man Philosophie nicht lernen?
"Philosophie kann man nicht lernen; Philosophie ist die Vereinigung des erworbenen Wissens mit dem Genie, das sie anwendet: Philosophie ist die leuchtende Wolke, auf der Christus stand, um in den Himmel aufzusteigen".
"Ich läutete nach Licht, aber niemand kam; also beschloss ich, mir selbst zu dienen. Es war eine Gewohnheit des Philosophen, die ich aufnehmen müsste."
"Der Hass ist blind, der Zorn ist benommen, und wer Rache ausschüttet, kann den bitteren Trank trinken."
"Bringen Sie zwei Schafe zur Metzgerei, zwei Ochsen zum Schlachthof, und lassen Sie eines davon verstehen, dass sein Gefährte nicht sterben wird, das Schaf wird vor Freude blöken, der Ochse wird vor Vergnügen brüllen; aber der Mensch, der Mensch, den Gott nach seinem Ebenbild geschaffen hat, der Mensch, dem Gott als sein erstes, sein einziges, sein oberstes Gesetz, die Liebe zu seinem Nächsten auferlegt hat, der Mensch, dem Gott eine Stimme gegeben hat, um seine Gedanken auszudrücken, was wird sein erster Ausruf sein, wenn er erfährt, dass sein Gefährte gerettet ist? Eine Blasphemie."
