Thus thinking is a deed. But a deed that also surpasses all praxis. Thinking towers above action and production, not through the grandeur of its achievement and not as a consequence of its effect, but through the humbleness of its inconsequential accomplishment. But just now an example of the inconspicuous deed of thinking manifested itself. For to the extent that we expressly think the usage 'bring to language,' which was granted to language, think only that and nothing further, to the extent that we retain this thought in the heedfulness of saying as what in the future continually has to be thought, we have brought something of the essential unfolding of Being itself to language.

the internalized conversation of gestures,' and as 'taking the attitude of the generalized other toward himself.' 44 Essentially, thinking or reflection is a matter of delaying one's reaction to a situation to give oneself time to anticipate what others' responses to one's action or gesture will be, and then modifying one's action or gesture accordingly. The quality of one's thought reflects how widely and carefully one can anticipate the responses of others. This is a process for enlarging the self, and bringing about social reconstruction as well.45 (net)
