The person who gets close enough to poetry, he is going to know more about the word belief than anybody else knows, even in religion nowadays. -- Robert Frost --
"How does the ordinary person come to the transcendent? For a start, I would say study poetry. Learn how to read a poem. You need not have the experience to get the message, or at least some indication of the message. It may come gradually. There are many ways, however, of coming to the transcendent experience." Joe Campbell, Thou Art That
