Related literary reference —

"The only way of expressing emotion in the form of art
is by finding an 'objective correlative'; in other words,
a set of objects, a situation, a chain of events which
shall be the formula of that particular  emotion; such that
when the external facts, which must terminate in sensory
experience, are given, the emotion is immediately evoked.
If you examine any of Shakespeare’s more successful
tragedies, you will find this exact equivalence…."

— T. S. Eliot, "Hamlet and His Problems" (1919)
