How Many Authors Are There Among Writers?

Philosophy Still Moves Too Much Straight Ahead, And Is Not Yet Cyclical Enough.

Mysteries Are Feminine; They Like To Veil Themselves But Still Want To Be Seen And Divined.

If One Believes Philosophers, Then What We Call Religion Is Only A Deliberately Popularized Or An Instinctively Artless Philosophy. Poets Seem To Consider Religion Rather As A Variation Of Poetry Which By Misjudging Its Proper Beautiful Game Takes Itself Too Seriously And One-sidedly. Philosophy, However, Admits And Recognizes That It Can Begin And Complete Itself Only With Religion. Poetry Seeks Only To Strive For The Infinite And Despises Worldly Utility And Culture, Which Are The True Antitheses Of Religion. Eternal Peace Among Artists Is Thus Not Far Away.

The Life Of The Artist Should Be Distinguished From That Of All Other People, Even In External Habits. They Are Brahmins, A Higher Caste, Not Ennobled By Birth, However, But Through Deliberate Self-initiation.

With Respect To Ingenious Subconsciousness, I Think, Philosophers Might Well Rival Poets.
