quote

G.K. Chesterton , Orthodoxy :
Poets do not go mad; but chess players do... Poetry is sane because it floats easily in an infinite sea; reason seeks to cross the infinite sea, and so make it finite... The poet only asks to get his head into the heavens. It is the logician who seeks to get the heavens into his head.
