Ode To Joy Quotes

“My Love wakes in a puddle of sunlight.

Her hair draped on the lawn
like a mantle of cloth.
I give her my life
for our love is whole
I sing her beauty
in my soul.”

“Und dann kamen Buchimisten
Ihre Bücher sah man nicht
Sie versteckten sie in Kisten
Ohne Luft und ohne Licht
Sie verbrachten sie in Tiefen
Wo sie träumen heute noch
Niemand weiß mehr, wo sie schliefen

Freude schöner Labyrinthe
Bücher im Elysium
Leder, Staub und alte Tinte
Steig hinab und komm drin um!”
― Walter Moers, Das Labyrinth der Träumenden Bücher
