An Origin (n.) is always formulated against a background of the already begun upon which man is able to reflect on what may serve for him as origin.
An Origin (n.) is always not-yet, always fresh, always promised in an imminence which is always nearer yet never accomplished. It is 'what thought has yet to think'.
Origin (n.) is, by no means, the beginning, but it is the way man articulates himself upon the already-begun of labor, life, and language. It must be sought for in that fold where man in all simplicity applies his labour to a world that has been worked for thousands of years.
The Origin (n.) is made possible and made a necessity which is both internal and foreign to historicity in its very fabric.
The Origin (n.) always precedes the fall.
The Origin (n.) does not give rise to historicity but rather as that for which historicity, in its very fabric, makes possible as a necessity which must be both internal and foreign to it.
The Origin (n.) is closest to man -as ageless as himself but for different reasons not because they are equally young, but because they belong to a time that has neither the same standards of measurement nor the same foundations as him.
