Quotes About Beginning

Beginning, before it becomes a historical event, is the supreme capacity of man; politically, it is identified with man's freedom. 'That a beginning be made man was created' said Augustine. This beginning is guaranteed by each new birth; it is indeed every man.

What will be at stake here is the Will as the spring of action, that is, as the power of spontaneously beginning . . . . No doubt every man, by virtue of his birth, is a new beginning, and his power of beginning may well correspond to this fact of the human condition. It is in line with these Augustinian reflections that the will has sometimes, and not only with Augustine, been considered to be the actualization of the principium individuationis.
