Our own body is in the world as the heart is in the organism: it keeps the visible spectacle constantly alive, it breathes life into it and sustains it inwardly, and with it forms a system.

I recognize my affinity with all beings; I am nothing but an ability to echo them, to understand them, to respond to them.

We might say that we perceive the things themselves, that we are the world that thinks itself–or that the world is at the heart of our flesh.
- Maurice #MerleauPonty
If at the center and so to speak the kernel of Being there is an infinite infinite, every partial being directly or indirectly presupposes it, and is in return really or eminently contained in it. All the relationships we can have to Being must be simultaneously founded upon it.

"As we return to our senses, we gradually discover our sensory perceptions to be simply our part of a vast interpenetrating webwork of perceptions and sensations borne by countless other bodies –
- Maurice #MerleauPonty
It is in ourselves and only in ourselves that we can touch the interior of being, because it is only there that we discover a being which has an interior and which is nothing but this interior.

The phenomenological world is not the bringing to explicit expression of a pre-existing being, but the laying down of being. #Philosophy is not the reflection of a pre-existing truth, but, like art, the act of bringing truth into being.

True #philosophy entails learning to see the world anew.

Though Merleau-Ponty is sometimes presented as being at odds with Husserl, I think it’s more accurate to describe him as a Husserlian himself.

Meaning is invisible, but the invisible is not contradictory of the visible: the visible itself has an invisible inner framework, and the in-visible is the secret counterpart of the visible.

La tesis muda de la percepción es que la experiencia puede coordinarse cada instante con la del instante anterior

"To understand is to experience harmony between what we aim at and what is given, between the intention and the performance - and the body is our anchorage in the world."

No one’s hands are clean. We are in the world, mingled with it, compromised with it.
