Johan Huizinga1
niederländischer Kulturhistoriker 1872 – 1945„Ernst ist Nichtspiel und nichts anderes. Der Bedeutungsinhalt von Spiel dagegen ist mit Nichternst keineswegs definiert oder erschöpft: Spiel ist etwas Eigenes“Johan Huizinga, Homo Ludens, Amsterdam 1939, S. 73, zitiert nach: Sandra Siebenhüter, Privatleben nicht vorgesehen [... ], Wiesbaden 2005, ISBN 3835060104, S. 222
Johan Huizinga41
Dutch historian 1872 – 1945„If a serious statement is defined as one that may be made in terms of waking life, poetry will never rise to the level of seriousness. It lies beyond seriousness, on that more primitive and original level where the child, the animal, the savage, and the seer belong, in the region of dream, enchantment, ecstasy, laughter. To understand poetry we must be capable of donning the child's soul like a magic cloak and of forsaking man's wisdom for the child's.“Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play-Element in Culture

Dutch historian 1872 – 1945„All play means something.“Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play-Element in Culture
Johan Huizinga41
Dutch historian 1872 – 1945„Our point of departure must be the conception of an almost childlike play-sense expressing itself in various play-forms, some serious, some playful, but all rooted in ritual and productive of culture by allowing the innate human need of rhythm, harmony, change, alternation, contrast and climax, etc., to unfold in full richness.“Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play-Element in Culture

Dutch historian 1872 – 1945„To fill in all the gaps in my knowledge beforehand was out of the question for me. I had to write now, or not at all. And I wanted to write.“Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play-Element in Culture

Dutch historian 1872 – 1945Johan Huizinga41
Dutch historian 1872 – 1945„In play there is something “at play” which transcends the immediate needs of life and imparts meaning to the action. All play means something. If we call the active principle that makes up the essence of play, “instinct”, we explain nothing; if we call it “mind” or “will” we say too much. However we may regard it, the very fact that play has a meaning implies a non-materialistic quality in the nature of the thing itself.“Homo Ludens: A Study of the Play-Element in Culture

Dutch historian 1872 – 1945„Aki tökéletesen okos és komoly, az képtelen élni. Minél jobban eltávolodik tőlem, Balgaságtól valaki, annál kevésbé él. Ugyan miért, mi okból csókolgatjuk, ölelgetjük a kisgyermekeket, ha nem azért, mert olyan csodálatosan balgák még. S mi más teszi az ifjúságot oly vonzóvá?“Erasmus and the Age of Reformation

Dutch historian 1872 – 1945„Minden hőstett forrása a háború, a legbalgább dolog a világon.“Erasmus and the Age of Reformation
