All my life, my heart has yearned for a thing I cannot name.
Andre Breton Beauty will be convulsive or will not be at all. Andre Breton Dali is like a man who hesitates between talent and genius, or, as one might once have said, between vice and virtue. Andre Breton Everything tends to make us believe that there exists a certain point of the mind at which life and death, the real and the imagined, past and future, the communicable and the incommunicable, high and low, cease to be perceived as contradictions. Andre Breton I have always been amazed at the way an ordinary observer lends so much more credence and attaches so much more importance to waking events than to those occurring in dreams... Man... is above all the plaything of his memory. Andre Breton If I place love above everything, it is because for me it is the most desperate, the most despairing state of affairs imaginable. Andre Breton It is living and ceasing to live that are imaginary solutions. Existence is elsewhere. Andre Breton Love is when you meet someone who tells you something new about yourself.

Andre Breton Perhaps I am doomed to retrace my steps under the illusion that I am exploring, doomed to try and learn what I should simply recognize, learning a mere fraction of what I have forgotten.

And what one hides from oneself is worth neither more nor less than what one allows others to find. Andre Breton Words make love with one another. Andre Breton |
