Take stock of those around you and you will hear them talk in precise terms about themselves and their surroundings, which would seem to point to them having ideas on the matter. But start to analyse those ideas and you will find that they hardly reflect in any way the reality to which they appear to refer, and if you go deeper you will discover that there is not even an attempt to adjust the ideas to this reality. Quite the contrary: through these notions the individual is trying to cut off any personal vision of reality, of his own very life. For life is at the start a chaos in which one is lost. The individual suspects this, but he is frightened at finding himself face to face with this terrible reality, and tries to cover it over with a curtain of fantasy, where everything is clear. It does not worry him that his ideas are not true, he uses them as trenches for the defense of his existence, as scarecrows to frighten away reality.

El amor, a quien pintan ciego, es vidente y perspicaz porque el amante ve cosas que el indiferente no ve y por eso ama.

«Filosofía es conocimiento del Universo o de todo cuanto hay. Ya vimos que esto implicaba para el filósofo la obligación de plantearse un problema absoluto, es decir, de no partir tranquilamente de creencias previas, de no dar nada por sabido anticipadamente. Lo sabido es lo que ya no es problema. Ahora bien, lo sabido fuera, aparte o antes de la filosofía, es sabido desde un punto de vista parcial y no universal, es un saber de nivel inferior que no puede aprovecharse en la altitud donde se mueve a nativitate el conocimiento filosófico. Visto desde la altura filosófica, todo otro saber tiene carácter de ingenuidad y de relativa falsedad, es decir, que se vuelve otra vez problemático. Por eso Nicolás Cusano llamaba a las ciencias docta ignorancia.»
José Ortega y Gasset: ¿Qué es filosofía? Revista de Occidente, pág. 110. Madrid, 1958.

Se è vero che il fine giustifica i mezzi, ne discende che il non raggiungimento del fine non consente più di giustificarli.

Quote
As one advances in life, one realises more and more that the majority of men — and of women — are incapable of any other effort than that strictly imposed on them as a reaction to external compulsion. And for that reason, the few individuals we have come across who are capable of a spontaneous and joyous effort stand out isolated, monumentalised, so to speak, in our experience. These are the select men, the nobles, the only ones who are active and not merely reactive, for whom life is a perpetual striving, an incessant course of training.

life makes sense when it becomes an aspiration not to give up anything
Das Leben macht Sinn, wenn es zum Streben wird, nichts aufzugeben
la vita ha senso quando diventa un'aspirazione a non rinunciare a nulla

La vita è una serie di collisioni con il futuro; non è una somma di ciò che siamo stati, ma di ciò che desideriamo essere.

The man with the clear head is the man who frees himself from those fantastic ideas, the characterological lie about reality, and looks life in the face, realizes that everything in it is problematic, and feels himself lost. And this is the simple truth, that to live is to feel oneself lost, he who accepts it has already begun to find himself, to be on firm ground. Instinctively, as do the shipwrecked, he will look round for something to which to cling, and that tragic, ruthless glance, absolutely sincere, because it is a question of his salvation, will cause him to bring order into the chaos of his life. These are the only genuine ideas; the ideas of the shipwrecked. All the rest is rhetoric, posturing, farce. He who does not really feel himself lost, is without remission; that is to say, he never finds himself, never comes up against his own reality.
