"In truth, philosophy is the mode of thought shaped by the most radical form of prejudice: the passion of being-in-the-world. With the sole exception of specialists in the field, virtually everyone senses that anything which offers less than this passion play remains philosophically trivial.

From the perspective of a theory of the practising life we would add: the deep plays are those which are moved by the heights."
