Quote by Jean-Paul Sartre

The superiority of hegelian dogmatism, for those who believe in it, lies precisely in that part of it which we now reject, its idealism. For Hegel, the dialectic had no need to prove itself. In the first place hegel took himself to be at the beginning of the end of history, that is to say, at that moment of truth which is death. The time had come to judge, because in future the philosopher and his judgement would never be required again.
