In The Spell

Unless one dwells in the spell of the Nonrational-- of romanticism, of the numinous, of mysticism, of magic, of mystery, of intuition, of wisdom, of power and strength and struggle, of religion, of holism, of ecology, of emotion, of the sensuous, of enjoyment, of esthetics, of passion, of vision, of the imagination, of the Deep, of the ancient, of tradition, of the Earth, of Nature, of biology, of instinct, of sex, of love, of the Dream, of creativity, of hope, of joy and ecstasy and bliss, of goodness and morality, of quest and its fulfilment, of striving and victory-- one lacks the inspired power to prevail.  And it all comes from Eros, Great God of Love and Life-Urge and Wisdom.
