“The mind in creation is as a fading coal, which some invisible influence, like an inconstant wind, awakens to transitory brightness; this power arises from within...could this influence be durable in its original purity and force, it is impossible to predict the greatness of the result; but when composition begins, inspiration is already on the decline; and the most glorious poetry that has been communicated to the world is probably a feeble shadow of the original conceptions of the poet.”
― Percy Bysshe Shelley

“The mind of the dreaming man is fully satisfied with whatever happens to it. The agonizing question of possibility does not arise.”

“Love is holy because it is like grace--the worthiness of its object is never really what matters.”
