The poetry of this one is called philosophical, of that one philological, of a third rhetorical, and so on. Which is then the poetic poetry?

Women do not have as great a need for poetry because their own essence is poetry.

Every complete man has his genius. True virtue is genius.

Nothing is more witty and grotesque than ancient mythology and Christianity; that is because they are so mystical.

Where philosophy ends, poetry must commence. There should not be a common point of view, a natural manner of thinking which standsin contrast to art and liberal education, or mere living; that is, one should not conceive of a realm of crudeness beyond the boundaries of education. Every conscious link of an organism should not perceive its limits without a feeling for its unity in relation to the whole. For example, philosophy should not only be contrasted to non-philosophy, but also to poetry.

Just as a child is really a thing that wants to become a man, so is the poem an object of nature that wants to become an object ofart.

Since philosophy now criticizes everything it comes across, a critique of philosophy would be nothing less than a just reprisal.
