Rene Daumal Quotes

Each time dawn appears, the mystery is there in its entirety Picture Quote #1
Philosophy teaches how man thinks he thinks; but drinking shows how he really thinks Picture Quote #1
The door to the invisible must be visible Picture Quote #1
Common experience is the gold reserve which confers an exchange value on the currency which words are; without this reserve of shared experiences, all our pronouncements are checks drawn on insufficient funds Picture Quote #1
It is still not enough for language to have clarity and content... it must also have a goal and an imperative. Otherwise from language we descend to chatter, from chatter to babble and from babble to confusion Picture Quote #1
Words are made for a certain exactness of thought, as tears are for a certain degree of pain. What is least distinct cannot be named; what is clearest is unutterable Picture Quote #1

Man is head, chest and stomach. Each of these animals operates, more often than not, individually. I eat, I feel, I even, although rarely, think. This jungle crawls and teems, is hungry, roars, gets angry, devours itself, and its cacophonic concert does not even stop when you are asleep Picture Quote #1
Truth is one, but error proliferates. Man tracks it down and cuts it up into little pieces hoping to turn it into grains of truth. But the ultimate atom will always essentially be an error, a miscalculation Picture Quote #1
You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know Picture Quote #1
A knife is neither true nor false, but anyone impaled on its blade is in error Picture Quote #1
Definition: Alpinism is the art of going through the mountains confronting the greatest dangers with the biggest of cares. What we call art here, is the application of a knowledge to an action Picture Quote #1
When feet doesn’t want to hold you, you climb with your head. Maybe it isn’t the natural order of things, but isn’t it better to walk with your head than to think with your feet, as it happens so frequently? Picture Quote #1
