Not A Small Discipline
Is there enough
pride, daring
boldness, self-assurance,
enough spiritual will,
will to responsibility,
freedom of will available today
for “the philosopher”
to be from now on really
—- possible on earth?
The desire to see differently
for once
in this way
is not a small discipline
of the intellect,
and a preparation
for its eventual
objectivity.
