When illuminating lightning is en-lightening.
[W]hat if "natural language," which in the eyes of information theory is no more than a troublesome residue, were drawing its nature, that is, the persistent nature of the being of langiage, from Saying? What if Saying, instead of merely impeding the destructiveness of information-language, had already overtaken it in virtue of the fact that Appropriation cannot be commandeered? What if Appropriation---no one when or how--were to become an insight whose illuminating lightening flash enters into what is and what is taken to be? What if Appropriation, by its entry, were to remove everything that is in present being from its subjection to a commandeering order and bring it back into its own?

P. 133
