Anyone who is familiar with these things knows that from one side, from the whole human being, the whole human being, human will, flows into the sound language, especially when it is artistically shaped by poetry; but that from the larynx, on the waves, I would say, of the will, thoughts flow, swim. In all our civilized languages, thoughts themselves have now taken on a rather conventional character and show in their nature that they are actually only there to enable people to communicate with each other in their prosaic lives by forming words. That is why everything that flows into poetry from the realm of thought must be felt as something unartistic by an artistic nature. And the question arises: how can one detach the pure element of will, which otherwise only permeates poetry in meter, rhythm, melodic form, and plastic pictorial form, how can one actually capture that?","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"51.

In allen unseren zivilisierten Sprachen haben nun die Gedanken selber schon einen schr konventionellen Charakter angenommen und zeigen in ihrer Eigenart, dass sie eigentlich, indem sie sich zu Worten gestalten, nur da sind, damit sich die Menschen im prosaischen Leben miteinander verständigen. Daher ist es auch so, dass alles dasjenige, was gerade in die Dichtung hineinfließt von der gedanklichen Seite her, heute schon von einer künstlerischen Natur empfunden werden muss als etwas Unkünstlerisches.
