    Words and man, yes there is something unespeakable there that must be spoken, that has the desire -φιλια, μανια?- to be expressed. In this relation there is a spark of the divine or the divine itself.

    Sometimes, in front of some works of art, in front of some words, you can feel the shadow of a light, the imminence of a trascendental revelation and for less than a second you are there, in that realm of Ideas or in the essential mountain where the poets hear the pure voice of the Muse.

    As for your kind posting of the words in the original Greek... ευχαριστω πολυ!
