33. Eurythmy Performance

If we study speech, which then finds its other expression in song, I would say, we see that the laws of the world of thought, which in turn arise out of the life of the senses, flow into speech. Everything that flows into human speech from the world of ideas and thoughts is actually the inartistic element of speech. For art is actually killed by the conceptual, by the imaginative. But in addition, the will and the feeling flow into language from the whole human being. This will and feeling is now just as much an expression of the inner human being as the conceptual is a result of the human being observing his surroundings.
