Ludwig Binswanger

"As compared with biological research, which exhausts or interprets the life-content of the phenomena, existential-analytical research has a double advantage. Firstly, it does not have to deal with so vague a 'concept' as that of life, but with the widely and completely uncovered structure of existence as 'being-in-the-world' and 'beyond-the-world.' Secondly, it can let existence actually speak up about itself -- let it have its say. In other words, the phenomena to be interpreted are largely language phenomena. We know that the content of existence can nowhere be more clearly seen or more securely interpreted than through language; because it is in language that our world-designs actually ensconce and articulate themselves and where, therefore, they can be ascertained and communicated."
-- Ludwig Binswanger
