Originary Quotes

The world must be romanticized. In this way the originary meaning may be found again. (Novalis)
Indeed, I scarcely comprehend how one can be a poet without revering and loving Spinoza and becoming completely his. Your own fantasy is rich enough for the invention of the particular: nothing is better suited to entice your fantasy, to stimulate and nourish it, than the poetic creations of other artists. But in Spinoza you find the beginning and the end of all fantasy, the universal ground on which your particularity rests - and you should welcome precisely this separation of that which is originary and eternal in fantasy from everything particular and specific.
