Simmel observes that the entanglement or interlacing of death in life, life in death [...] should cause us to hesitate to attribute life to the godhead. No matter how enchanting a notion the living God may be, it might also be a vulgar stupidity or bedazzlement [...] that lies concealed in all metaphysics as the thought of "spirit" or "life."

-- David Farrell Krell, Daimon Life: Heidegger and Life-Philosophy, p 95
