Rudolf Steiner: "To come to know the spirit in order at the same time to enter with the spirit into a kind of marriage of the soul is a moment that characterizes to the most intense degree the essential nature of Central Europe. Hence this Central European nature can use that which descends into the deepest depths of sensory experience and sensory feeling in order to become a symbol for the all-highest."

Rudolf Steiner: "In older languages the self was not specifically designated, for it was contained within the verb. The 'I' was not directly mentioned. The verb was used to show what one was doing, and this was what indicated that one was speaking about oneself. There was no name for the self. It only came about in later times that the human being gave his self a name, and in our German language that name [ich] contains the initials of Jesus Christ, which is an important symbolic fact." [Iesus CHristus: ICH]
