Quote:

[Philosophy is] an attempt to express a half-undiscovered reality, just as art is, and that two different renderings, if they are expressive, far from canceling each other add to each other's value. . . . [P]hilosophy seems to me to be its own reward, and its justification lies in the delight and dignity of the art itself. (George Santayana)

—Letters 1:90 (To William James, Berlin, December 18, 1887)
