Ecstasy is from the contemplation of things vaster than the individual and imperfectly seen perhaps, by all those that still live.  William Butler Yeats

 

 

Anyone who hasn’t experienced the ecstasy of betrayal knows nothing about ecstasy at all.  Jeab Genet  

 

 

Blasted with ecstasy.  William Shakespeare, Hamlet III i 159, Ophelia                              

 

 

There is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise.  And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive.  Jack London, Call of the Wild

 

 

You do not need to leave your room.  Remain sitting at your table and listen.  Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet still and solitary.  The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.  Franz Kafka       

 

 

Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough.  Emily Dickinson

 

 

Ecstasy is not really part of the scene we can do on celluloid.  Orson Welles

 

 

Sustained intensity equals ecstasy.  Wynton Marsalis

 

 

And for just a moment I had reached the point of ecstasy that I always wanted to reach, which was the complete step across chronological time into timeless shadows, and wonderment in the bleakness of the mortal realm, and the sensation of death kicking at my heels to move on, with a phantom dogging its own heels, and myself hurrying to a plank where all the angels dove off and flew into the holy void of uncreated emptiness, the potent and inconceivable radiancies shining in bright Mind Essence, innumerable lotuslands falling open in the magic mothswarm of heaven.  I could hear an indescribable seething roar which wasn’t in my ear but everywhere and had nothing to do with sounds.  I realized that I had died and been reborn numberless times but just didn’t remember especially because the transitions from life to death and back to life are so ghostly easy, a magical action for naught, like falling asleep and waking up again a million times, the utter casualness and deep ignorance of it.  I realized it was only because of the stability of the intrinsic Mind that these ripples of birth and death took place, like the action of the wind on a sheet of pure, serene, mirror-like water.  I felt sweet, swinging bliss, like a big shot of heroin in the mainline vein; like a gulp of wine late in the afternoon and it makes you shudder; my feet tingled.  I thought I was going to die the very next moment.  But I didn’t die ...  Jack Kerouac, On the Road 

 

 

What can an eternity of damnation matter to someone who has felt, if only for a second, the infinity of delight?  Charles Baudelaire, Paris Spleen
