    To him who looks upon the world rationally, the world in its turn presents a rational aspect. The relation is mutual.

    Whatever happens, every individual is a child of his time; so philosophy too is its own time apprehended in thoughts. It is just as absurd to fancy that a philosophy can transcend its contemporary world as it is to fancy that an individual can overleap his own age, jump over Rhodes.
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
