"In one of the Upanishads it says, when the glow of a sunset holds you
and you say 'Aha,' that is the recognition of the divinity. And when you
say 'Aha' to an art object, that is a recognition of divinity. And what
divinity is it? It is your divinity, which is the only divinity there
is. We are all phenomenal manifestations of a divine will to live, and
that will and the consciousness of life is one in all of us, and that is
what artwork expresses."
Joseph Campbell, “Creativity,” The Mythic Dimension, p.154
