More on Longing
“You smiled and talked to me of nothing and I felt that for this I had been waiting long.”
“I desired dragons with a profound desire.”
“There they lay, but not in the forgetfulness of the previous night. She was seeking and he was seeking, they raged and contorted their faces and bored their heads into each others bosom in the urgency of seeking something, and their embraces and their tossing limbs did not avail to make them forget, but only reminded them of what they sought”
More on Love
“...the opposite of love is not hate - it's apathy. It's not giving a damn. If somebody hates me, they must "feel" something ... or they couldn't possibly hate. Therefore, there's some way in which I can get to them.”
“Love that is cleansed by tears will remain eternally pure and beautiful.”
“Love grants in a momentWhat toil can hardly achieve in an age.[Ger., In einem Augenblick gewahrt die LiebeWas Muhe kaum in langer Zeit erreicht.]”
