   1861: Joseph Augustus Seiss, The Day of the Lord: A Lecture Delivered in St. John's (Lutheran) Church, Philadelphia, page 41:

   • "... not some cold dream-land; where all sensation is attenuated into a spiritual meagreness totally destitute of attractions for mortals; not a mere state, made up of certain unearthlinesses, of which no one can conceive and with which no one can sympathize; but a literal and material world, firm and ponderable as now, girthed and clothed with similar heavens, adorned with sunshine and showers, birds, trees, streams, melody, and flowers"

   1991: Ad Reinhardt, Art as Art: The Selected Writings of Ad Reinhardt, page 187:

   • "The cult of art-as-art centers around art as a magic, art as a second, or double, or super nature, around art's immolations and unearthlinesses, around art's timelessness, uselessness, and meaninglessness."

   2004: Fred Botting and Dale Townshend, Gothic: Critical Concepts in Literary and Cultural Studies, page 144:
