Mystic

Famous quotes containing the word mystic:

    Mysticism and exaggeration go together. A mystic must not fear ridicule if he is to push all the way to the limits of humility or the limits of delight.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)

    The mystic purchases a moment of exhilaration with a lifetime of confusion; and the confusion is infectious and destructive. It is confusing and destructive to try and explain anything in terms of anything else, poetry in terms of psychology.
    Basil Bunting (1900–1985)

    I have no mystic faith in the people. I have in the individual.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
