Unworldly

He's not at all like the cliché of an unworldly professor.

Audubon was blessed with good health, length of years, a devoted and self-sacrificing wife, and a buoyant, sanguine, and elastic disposition. He had the heavenly gift of enthusiasm—a passionate love for the work he set out to do. He was a natural hunter, roamer, woodsman; as unworldly as a child, and as simple and transparent. We have had better trained and more scientific ornithologists since his day, but none with his abandon and poetic fervour in the study of our birds.

‘But a good wife—a good unworldly woman—may really help a man, and keep him more independent.’

I am an aspiring theological writer-artist, Alien Christian Mystic, unworldly, contemplative.

This creature from a higher world has not forgotten all that he knew before; he retains his unworldly talents and supreme intelligence.
