Quotes by Else Lasker-Schüler (?)

“Du weißt doch, was ich von der Liebe halte. Wäre sie eine Fahne, ich würde sie erobern oder für sie fallen.”
― Else Lasker-Schüler, Mein Herz: Ein Liebesroman mit Bildern und wirklich lebenden Menschen. Mit Zeichnungen der Autorin aus der Ausgabe von 1912

“Wenn du sprichst,
Wacht mein buntes Herz auf.

Alle Vögel üben sich
Auf deinen Lippen.

Immerblau streut deine Stimme
Über den Weg;

Wo du erzählst, wird Himmel.

Deine Worte sind aus Lied geformt,
Ich traure, wenn du schweigst.

Singen hängt überall an dir-
Wie du wohl träumen magst?”
― Else Lasker-Schüler, Gedichte 1902 - 1943.
