“Only an entity which, in its Being, is essentially *futural* so that it is free for its death and can let itself be thrown back upon its factical “there” by shattering itself against death–that is to say, only an entity which, as futural, is equiprimordially in the process of *having-been*, can, by handing down to itself the possibility it has inherited, take over its own thrownness and be *in the moment of vision* for 'its time'. Only authentic temporality which is at the same time finite, makes something like fate–that is to say, authentic historicality.”
