Quotes

• “Wit is the appearance, the external flash of imagination. Thus its divinity, and the witty character of mysticism.”
• “Honour is the mysticism of legality.”
• “It is equally fatal for the spirit to have a system and to have none. One must thus decide to join the two.”
• “In the same way as philosophy loses sight of its true object and appropriate matter, when either it passes into and merges in theology, or meddles with external politics, so also does it mar its proper form when it attempts to mimic the rigorous method of mathematics.”
