Imre Szemán Quote

The task facing philosophy today is to examine its filiations to its most hallowed concepts and to consider anew their productivity.... The result of this task might be to see old concepts as more productive than new ones, which suffer not merely from the fact that they are inevitably expressions of the general conditions of possibility of the present moment, but also because of the way in which the eternal production of the new is linked more strongly than ever to the basic drive of capitalism.
