«German film director Werner Herzog claims to have an affinity with
the work of Longinus, in a talk entitled "On the Absolute, the Sublime
and Ecstatic Truth", presented in Milan. Herzog says that he thinks of
Longinus as a good friend and considers that Longinus's notions of
illumination has a parallel in some moments in his films. He quotes
from Longinus: "For our soul is raised out of nature through the truly
sublime, sways with high spirits, and is filled with proud joy, as if
itself had created what it hears."»
Gathatoulie
And of these shall I speak to those eager, That quality of wisdom that all the wise wish And call creative qualities And good creation of the mind The all-powerful truth Truly and that more & better ways are discovered Towards perfection --Zarathustra.
