So fats have the peculiarity of going rancid. Now, if you have left butter standing, you won't be able to tell whether it's rancid or good, fresh butter — unless you're trained to look at it. But when you put the butter on your tongue and taste it, you know immediately that the butter is rancid. So it has something to do with consciousness, with sensation. Rotting has something to do with smelling, with the external, you can smell it. Of course, it is different with rotten eggs than with the scent of roses, but at least you smell it. But not the process of going rancid. Rancidity is something that is described in terms of something more internal, of tasting.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"II.

Also Fette haben die Eigentümlichkeit, ranzig zu werden. Nun, wenn Sie Butter haben stehen lassen, da werden Sie nicht sagen können: Das ist eine ranzige Butter, oder eine gute, frische Butter —, wenn Sie nicht darauf geschult sind, es ihr anzusehen. Aber wenn Sie die Butter auf die Zunge bringen und sie schmecken, dann wissen Sie sofort, die Butter ist ranzig. Das hat also etwas zu tun mit dem Bewußtsein, mit der Empfindung. Das Faulsein, das hat etwas zu tun mit dem Riechen, mit dem Äußerlichen, das können Sie riechen. Es ist natürlich bei faulen Eiern anders als beim Rosenduft, aber jedenfalls riechen Sie es. Nicht aber eben das Ranzigwerden.
