Quote by Gadamer, Hans-Georg
"The interpreter stands in the tradition even as she tries to understand it—this is not a problem but the condition of interpretation."
More from Gadamer, Hans-Georg
"Understanding is not a state of rest but a state of play."
"Language is the universal medium in which understanding itself is realized."
"Genuine historical thinking must think away the distance and difference of the times."
"The hermeneutic experience is concerned with the otherness of the other."
