Poetry is the hero of philosophy. Philosophy raises poetry to the status of a principle. It teaches us to recognize the worth of poetry. Philosophy is the theory of poetry. It shows us what poetry is, that it is one and all.

Novalis, Logological Fragments II

Shakespeare said that art is a mirror held up to nature. And that's what it is. The nature is your nature, and all of these wonderful poetic images of mythology are referring to something in you. When your mind is trapped by the image out there so that you never make the reference to yourself, you have misread the image. The inner world is the world of your requirements and your energies and your structure and your possibilities that meets the outer world. And the outer world is the field of your incarnation. That's where you are. You've got to keep both going. As Novalis said, 'The seat of the soul is there where the inner and outer worlds meet.

Illnesses, particularly long-lasting ones, are years of apprenticeship in the art of life and the shaping of the mind. One must seek to use them through daily observations. For is not the life of the educated person a constant challenge to learn?

Novalis, Last Fragments

[wellconstructedsentences]

Philosophy is really homesickness, an urge to be at home everywhere. Where, then, are we going? Always to our home.

Fragments by Novalis

Chaque maladie est un problème musical ; et la guérison est une solution musicale. Plus la solution est brève et cependant complète, plus grand est le talent musical du médecin. Novalis, Fragments, Éditions José Corti, 1992

Away I turn to the holy, the unspeakable, the secretive Night.
