" "The tragically moderate weariness of the times, whose object is of no real interest to the heart, follows the pull of the spirit of the times without the least moderation and this spirit appears then as something wild and not, like a ghost in daylight, sparing mad at all, but quite pitiless, as the spirit of the always alive unwritten wilderness and the world of the dead.
Johann Christian Friedrich Hölderlin (20 March 1770 – 6 June 1843) was a major German lyric poet, whose work bridges the Classical and Romantic schools.

You seek life, and a godly fire Gushes and gleams for you out of the earth, As, with shuddering long, you Hurl yourself down to the flames of the Etna. <p> So by a queen's wanton whim Pearls were dissolved in wine- heed her not! What folly, poet, to cast your riches Into that bright and bubbling cup! <p> Yet still are you holy to me, as the might of the earth That bore you away, audaciously perishing! And I would follow the hero into the depths Did love not hold me.

Ein Zeichen sind wir, deutungslos,
Schmerzlos sind wir und haben fast
Die Sprache in der Fremde verloren.
Wenn nämlich über Menschen
Ein Streit ist an dem Himmel und gewaltig
Die Monde gehen, so redet
Das Meer auch und Ströme müssen
Den Pfad sich suchen. Zweifellos
Ist aber Einer. Der
Kann täglich es ändern. Kaum bedarf er
Gesetz. Und es tönet das Blatt und Eichbäume wehn dann neben
Den Firnen. Denn nicht vermögen
Die Himmlischen alles. Nämlich es reichen
Die Sterblichen eh an den Abgrund. Also wendet es sich, das Echo,
Mit diesen. Lang ist
Die Zeit, es ereignet sich aber
Das Wahre.
