" "La belleza carente de fuerza odia al entendimiento porque éste exige de ella lo que no está en condiciones de dar. Pero la vida del espíritu no es la vida que se asusta ante la muerte y se mantiene pura de la desolación, sino la que sabe afrontarla y mantenerse en ella. El espíritu sólo conquista su verdad cuando es capaz de encontrarse a sí mismo en el absoluto desgarramiento. El espíritu no es esta potencia como lo positivo que se aparta de lo negativo, como cuando decimos de algo que no es nada o que es falso y, hecho esto, pasamos sin más a otra cosa, sino que sólo es esta potencia cuando mira cara a cara a lo negativo y permanece cerca de ello. Esta permanencia [en lo negativo] es la fuerza mágica que hace que lo negativo vuelva al ser.

Additional quotes by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
The good is the idea, or unity of the conception of the will with the particular will. Abstract right, well-being, the subjectivity of consciousness, and the contingency of external reality, are in their independent and separate existences superseded in this unity, although in their real essence they are contained in it and preserved. This unity is realized freedom, the absolute final cause of the world. Addition.—Every stage is properly the idea, but the earlier steps contain the idea only in more abstract form. The I, as person, is already the idea, although in its most abstract guise. The good is the idea more completely determined; it is the unity of the conception of will with the particular will. It is not something abstractly right, but has a real content, whose substance constitutes both right and well-being.
