People do not take account of this sleep condition at all. If we recollect our past life, we seem to have before us a complete life picture. That is not the case; the time spent in sleep has regularly dropped out; the whole picture is continuously interrupted. We always connect the morning with the previous evening, but between them is the *night*. And what has occurred during sleep in the night constitutes outwardly, in the first place, at least a third of the human life (at all events, among “respectable” people it is so); and, secondly, it is much more important for the inner man than the outer activity during the whole day. To be sure, the outer activity is more important for external civilization; but our inner development during life is brought about by our coming into relation with the spiritual world in the right way while we sleep during the night.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Pneumatosophy: The Riddles of the Inner Man","site_heading":null,"date":"1923-05-23","location":null,"word_count":172,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/224/1923-05-23/p018","alignment_confidence":"medium","alignment_reason":"beads:length+anchor_constrained","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Frances E.

Das ist nicht wahr! Da fallen ja immer die Schlafenszeiten heraus, das Ganze ist immer unterbrochen. Wir knüpfen zwar immer den Morgen an den Abend an, aber dazwischen liegt ja die Nacht. Und was während des Schlafes in der Nacht geschehen ist, das bedeutet erstens äußerlich mindestens einen Drittel des menschlichen Lebens - wenigstens bei «anständigen Menschen» ist es so -, und zweitens ist es für das Innere des Menschen viel wichtiger als das äußere Tun während des ganzen Tages. Gewiß, das äußere Tun ist für die äußere Kultur das Wichtigere. Aber unsere innere Gestaltung während des Lebens wird dadurch zustande gebracht, daß wir in nachtschlafender Zeit in der richtigen Weise hineinkommen in den Zusammenhang mit der geistigen Welt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":169,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/224/1923-05-23/p017"}],"english":["GA 224/1923-05-23/p018"],"method":"length+anchor_constrained","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":169,"en_words":172,"ratio":1.02,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":9860,"original_word_count":9624,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Frances E.
