Nietzsche on sensuality and intellectuality

Nietzsche is often reductionist, so this aspirational mind-body integration claim is striking:

“It is probable that in such perfectly well-constituted men, enjoyments of a wholly sensual nature are ultimately transfigured into allegorical reveries of the highest intellectuality; they experience in themselves a kind of deification of the body”

The Will to Power, 1051
