“I am sitting at my kitchen table waiting for my lover to arrive with lettuce and tomatoes and rum and sherry wine and a big floury loaf of bread in the fading sunlight. Coffee is percolating gently, and my mood is mellow. I have been very happy lately, just wallowing in it selfishly, knowing it will not last very long, which is all the more reason to enjoy it now. I suppose life always ends badly for almost everybody. We must have long fingers and catch at whatever we can while it is passing near us.”
― Tennessee Williams, Notebooks

“Between my shoulders, my full and golden soul takes wing. The April sky turns my eyes indigo.”
― Federico García Lorca, The Selected Poems

“La Soleá"

All in this world has broken.
All that’s left is silence.

(Leave me in this field
weeping.)”
― Federico García Lorca, The Selected Poems
