When I was young I lived a constant storm, Though now and then the brilliant suns shot through, So in my garden few red fruits were born, The rain and thunder had so much to do. -

Sous les ifs noirs qui les abritent, Les hiboux se tiennent ranges, Ainsi que des dieux etrangers, Dardant leur oeil rouge. Ils meditent. Sans remuer ils se tiendront Jusqu'a l'heure melancolique Ou, poussant le soleil oblique, Les tenebres s'etabliront. Leur attitude au sage enseigne Qu'il faut en ce monde qu'il craigne Le tumulte et le mouvement, L'homme ivre d'une ombre qui passe Porte toujours le chatiment D'avoir voulu changer de place..

Dejame respirar mucho tiempo, mucho tiempo, el olor de tus cabellos; sumergir en ellos el rostro, como hombre sediento en agua de manantial, y agitarlos con mi mano, como panuelo odorifero, para sacudir recuerdos al aire. !Si pudieras saber todo lo que veo! !Todo lo que siento! !Todo lo que oigo en tus cabellos! Mi alma viaja en el perfume como el alma de los demas hombres en la musica. Tus cabellos contienen todo un ensueno, lleno de velam..

Do you know that high fever which invades us in our cold suffering, that aching for a land we do not know, that anguish of curiosity? There is a country which resembles you, where everything is beautiful, sumptuous, authentic, still, where fantasy has built and adorned a western China, where life is sweet to breathe, where happiness is wed to silence. That is where to live, that is where to die!" - Invitation to a Voyage"

The priest is immense because he makes others believe in a heap of weird things. The Church wanting to do everything and be everything: it is a law of human spirit. Peoples adore authority. Priests are the servants and followers of imagination. The throne and the altar: revolutionary maxim.

El Demonio se agita sin cesar a mi lado, flota a mi alrededor como un aire impalpable; lo respiro y siento que quema mis pulmones, llenandolos de un ansia sempiterna y culpable. Sabiendo lo mucho que amo el Arte, toma a veces la forma de la mujer mas seductora, y con especiales e hipocritas pretextos acostumbra mis labios a filtros degradantes. Lejos de la vista de Dios, asi me lleva, jadeante y deshecho de cansancio, al centro de los llano..

Qui aimes-tu le mieux, homme enigmatique, dis? ton pere, ta mere, ta soeur ou ton frere? - Je n'ai ni pere, ni mere, ni soeur, ni frere. - Tes amis? - Vous vous servez la d'une parole dont le sens m'est reste jusqu'a ce jour inconnu. - Ta patrie? - J'ignore sous quelle latitude elle est situee. - La beaute? - Je l'aimerais volontiers, deesse et immortelle? - L'or? - Je le hais comme vous haissez Dieu.

Es hermosa y mas que hermosa: es sorprendente. Lo negro en ella abunda; y es nocturno y profundo cuanto inspira. Sus ojos son de astros en que centellea vagamente el misterio, y su mirada ilumina como el relampago: es una explosion en las tinieblas.

Cred ca deja am scris in notele mele despre faptul ca iubirea se aseamana izbitor cu o tortura sau cu o operatie chirurgicala. Aceasta idee poate fi insa dezvoltata la modul cel mai chinuitor. Chiar daca cei doi amanti ar fi foarte indragostiti si plini de dorinte unul fata de celalalt, unul din ei va fi intotdeauna mai calm sau mai putin posedat decat celalalt. El - sau ea - este operatorul, sau calaul; celalalt, subiectul, victima. Auziti..

L'idee que l'homme se fait du beau s'imprime dans tout son ajustement, chiffonne ou roidit son habit, arrondit ou aligne son geste, et meme penetre subtilement, a la longue, les traits de son visage. L'homme finit par ressembler a ce qu'il voudrait etre.

In certain almost supernatural states of mind, the profundity of life is revealed in its entirety in the spectacle, common as it may be, that we have before our eyes. It becomes the symbol of it.

As if, with beasts' eyes, angels led The way, I slip back to your bed, Quiet as a hooded light, Hushed by the shadows of the night. And then, my dark one, you shall soon Embrace the cold beams of the moon, Around a fresh grave, the chilling hiss Of serpent coiled shall be my kiss. When morning shows his livid face Your bed shall feel my empty place, As cold as death, till fall of night. Others take tenderness to wife:

Souvent, pour s'amuser, les hommes d'equipage Prennent des albatros, vastes oiseaux des mers, Qui suivent, indolents compagnons de voyage, Le navire glissant sur les gouffres amers. A peine les ont-ils deposes sur les planches, Que ces rois de l'azur, maladroits et honteux, Laissent piteusement leurs grandes ailes blanches Comme des avirons trainer a cote d'eux. Ce voyageur aile, comme il est gauche et veule ! Lui, naguere si beau, qu'il es..

Hay que estar siempre ebrio. Nada mas: ese es todo el asunto. Para no sentir el horrible peso del Tiempo que os fatiga la espalda y os inclina hacia la tierra, teneis que embriagaros sin tregua. Pero, ?de que? De vino, de poesia o de virtud, como querais. Pero embriagaos.

Samuel was, more than all the others, the man of failed works of beauty; - a fantastical and sickly creature, whose poetry shines forth much more in his person than in his works, and who, around one o'clock in the morning, between the dazzling of a coal fire and the clock's tick-tock, always seemed to be the god of impotence, - a modern and hermaphrodite god, - so colossal an impotence, so enormous, reaching epic proportions!

Conceive a canvas for a lyrical or fairytale buffoonery, for a pantomime, and translate it into a serious novel. Drown everything in an abnormal and dreamy atmosphere, - in the atmosphere of the great days. - It must be something soothing, - even serene in its passion. - Regions of pure Poetry.

Passion sits on the skull Of Humanity, And this infidel enthroned Laughs shamelessly, And gaily blows round bubbles That will fly, As if to join with worlds Deep in the sky. Rising on high, the frail Luminous globe, Shatters and bursts its slim soul Like a dream of gold. I hear at each bubble, the skull Moan and contend: 'This vicious, ridiculous game, When will it end? What you are blowing away Again and again, You murder..

Oh, sim!

Eu lhe asseguro que os segundos sao mais fortes agora, solenemente acentuados, e cada um, saltando do relogio, diz assim, Eu sou a Vida, intoleravel, implacavel!

The Desire To Paint" Unhappy perhaps is the man, but happy the artist, who is torn with this desire. I burn to paint a certain woman who has appeared to me so rarely, and so swiftly fled away, like some beautiful, regrettable thing the traveller must leave behind him in the night. It is already long since I saw her. She is beautiful, and more than beautiful: she is overpowering. The colour black preponderates in her; all that she inspires i..
