Only what is incomplete can be comprehended–can take us further. What is complete is only enjoyed. If we want to comprehend nature we must postulate it as incomplete, to reach an unknown variable in this way.
As one progresses so much becomes dispensable–much appears in a different light.
That which is imperfect appears most tolerable as a fragment–and thus this form of communication is to be recommended above that which as a whole is not yet finished.
To romanticize the world is to make us aware of the magic, mystery and wonder of the world; it is to educate the senses to see the ordinary as extraordinary, the familiar as strange, the mundane as sacred, the finite as infinite.
Novalis
