"For philosophers of the present day the philosophical past is genuinely motivating. The peculiar modality of the horizon of the philosopher - generations and their works, their thoughts. Every philosopher has his historical horizon, encompassing all the philosophers, who have formed their thoughts in philosophical co-existence, and has worked on new philosophers as entering anew into this co-existence."
Edmund Husserl, "Supplement XXIV" trans. Dermot Moran, found in Krisis, p. 488.
