26 quotes
Life is the farce we are all forced to endure.
Sweeter than apples to children
The green water spurted through my pine-wood hull.
Oh my little mistresses,
How I hate you!
O seasons, O castles,
What soul is without flaws?
I have embraced the summer dawn.
Cold disdain is the meat of marriage.
My sad heart foams at the stern.
Black A, white E, red I, green U, blue O: vowels,
Someday I shall recount your latent births.
It is found again.
What? Eternity.
It is the sea
Gone with the sun.
Love is to be reinvented, that is clear.
I went out under the sky, Muse! and I was your vassal.
Old poetics played a large part in my alchemy of the word.
I have bathed in the Poem
Of the Sea...
Devouring the green azures.
I found I could extinguish all human hope from my soul.
I believe I am in Hell, and so I am there.
