“If the world is a precipitation of human nature, so to speak, then the divine world is a sublimation of the same. Both occur in one act. No precipitation without sublimation. What goes lost there in agility, is won here.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
