Miracle Matter Spirit

More From Heinrich Heine

We must remember that there is a great difference between a myth and a miracle. a myth is the idealization of a fact. a miracle is the counterfeit of a fact. there is the same difference between a myth and a miracle that there is between fiction and falsehood -- between poetry and perjury. miracles belong to the far past and the far future. the little line of sand, called the present, between the seas, belongs to common sense to the natural.

The realm of the real is spirit. the unlikeness of spirit is matter, and the opposite of the real is not divine, it is a human concept. matter is an error of statement. this error in the premise leads to errors in the conclusion in every statement into which it enters. nothing we can say or believe regarding matter is immortal, for matter is temporal and is therefore a mortal phenomenon, a human concept, sometimes beautiful, always erroneous.

If you come to me and say, 'hey look i'm a racist,' or 'i discriminate against blacks,' or 'i don't like you because you're african american,' i respect that. i can respect you more by doing that. but don't smile in my face, shake my hand, and then you don't really respect me, or want me to be around, or come to your games as the owner of the clippers.

A man should not go where he cannot carry his whole sphere or society with him,mnot bodily, the whole circle of his friends, but atmospherically. he should preserve in a new company the same attitude of mind and reality of relation, which his daily associates draw him to, else he is shorn of his best beams, and will be an orphan in the merriest club.
