“The apprehension of supreme beauty invokes in the subject both a sense of overwhelming disorientation that one is, at last, ill-prepared to banquet upon the sublime-itself, as well as a profound longing that this first and fleeting transport could linger and substitute for all eternity for the ordinary fruits of waking consciousness, which, in light of this glimpse of the otherworldly-in-our-own-world, now appears paltry in comparison and a sad surrogate for what one now knows to be possible.” – Andrew Lipsky
