Time and Narrative, Volume 1 Quotes

“Language is for itself the order of the Same. The world is its Other. The attestation of this otherness arises from language's reflexivity with regard to itself, whereby it knows itself as being in being in order to bear on being.”
― Paul Ricœur, Time and Narrative, Volume 1

“Time becomes human time to the extant that it is organized after the manner of a narrative.”
― Paul Ricoeur, Time and Narrative, Volume 1
