“At half past three in the morning I woke up. And immediately elastic I
jumped out of bed. I came to write you. I mean: be. Now it’s half past five. I
want nothing: I am pure. I don’t wish this solitude on you. But I myself am
in the creating fog. Lucid darkness, luminous stupidity.”
― Água Viva

“The night of today looks at me with torpor, verdigris and lime. I want inside this night that is longer than life, I want, inside this night, life raw and bloody and full of saliva.”

“Every thing has an instant in which it is. I want to grab hold of the is of the thing. These instants passing through the air I breathe: in fireworks they explode silently in space.”

“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart.
...live in the question.”

...live in the question.”
― Letters to a Young Poet
“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.”
