Essence is an album by saxophonist Eric Kloss which was recorded in 1973 and released on the Muse label.
“When we say that God is a spirit, we know what we mean, as well as we do when we say that the pyramids of Egypt are matter. Let us be content, therefore, to believe him to be a spirit, that is, an essence that we know nothing of, in which originally and necessarily reside all energy, all power, all capacity, all activity, all wisdom, all goodness.”
“One must love humanity in order to reach out into the unique essence of each individual: no one can be too low or too ugly.”
“Names and attributes must be accommodated to the essence of things, and not the essence to the names, since things come first and names afterwards.”
“No question is here raised as to the true content of this; the question is if one will give assent to the God’s having come into existence, by which the God’s eternal essence is inflected in the dialectical determinations of coming into existence.”
“Of myths some are theological, some physical, some psychic, and again some material, and some mixed from these last two. The theological are those myths which use no bodily form but contemplate the very essence of the Gods: e.g., Kronos swallowing his children. Since god is intellectual, and all intellect returns into itself, this myth expresses in allegory the essence of god.”
“Prestige, which is illusion, is of the very essence of power.”
