Quote

“How do you know if something is real? That’s easy. Does it change you? Does it form you? Does it give you wings? Does it give you roots? Does it make you look back at a month ago and say, “I am a whole different person right now”? If yes, then it’s real. The evidence of truth and reality lies in how much something can touch you, can change you, even if it’s from very far away. Distance is only the evidence of what can be surpassed.”
― C. JoyBell C.

Love is always real.

Umberto Eco

Umberto Eco – January 5, 1932 – February 19, 2016.

 

”To survive, you must tell stories.”

”Captain Cook discovered Australia looking for the Terra Incognita. Christopher Columbus thought he was finding India but discovered America. History is full of events that happened because of an imaginary tale.”

”Creativity can only be anarchic, capitalist, Darwinian.”

”Absence is to love as wind is to fire: it extinguishes the little flame, it fans the big.”

Art by Rafal Olbinski.

The night of last

The night of last
was as charmed as the lust
for balmy winds

awake in the fields,
betrothed with hills

loved by the mere
and the surreal moons

Touching you
with the fire of springs.

Rene Magritte

Mere = a pool or lake.

 

 

Blooming chart

My blooming chart says Love is not Love

that could not resist the flowers to seed, bloom, bask in the moon, wither in the wind

and wait patiently in the ground more agains than springs…

W. Somerset Maugham

Coffee and Somerset for me …

W.Somerset Maugham- 25 January 1874 – 16 December 1965.

Uncanny observer of human nature and my personal trainer and influencer:

“It was a night so beautiful that your soul seemed hardly able to bear the prison of the body.”

“Irony is a gift of the gods, the most subtle of all the modes of speech. It is an armour and a weapon; it is a philosophy and a perpetual entertainment; it is food for the hungry of wit and drink to those thirsting for laughter…”

“The faculty for myth is innate in the human race. It seizes with avidity upon any incidents, surprising or mysterious, in the career of those who have at all distinguished themselves from their fellows, and invents a legend to which it then attaches a fanatical belief. It is the protest of romance against the commonplace of life.”

“All the words I use in my stories can be found in the dictionary—it’s just a matter of arranging them into the right sentences.”
