Words have finished flirting. Now they are making love.
Andre Breton
The imaginary is what tends to become real.
Andre Breton
Of all those arts in which the wise excel, Nature's chief masterpiece is writing well.
Andre Breton
Love is when you meet someone who tells you something new about yourself.
Andre Breton
Keep reminding yourself that literature is one of the saddest roads that leads to everything.
Andre Breton
The simplest act of surrealism is to walk out into the street, gun in hand, and shoot at random.
Andre Breton
I love you on the surface of seas Red like the egg when it is green
Andre Breton
One can understand why Surrealism was not afraid to make for itself a tenet of total revolt, complete insubordination, of sabotage according to rule, and why it still expects nothing save from violence.
Andre Breton
Every time you date someone with an issue that you have to work to ignore, you're settling.
Andre Breton

Andre Breton

Andre Breton

It tends to ruin once and for all other psychic mechanisms and to substitute itself for them in solving all the principle problems of life.
Andre Breton
The purest surrealist act is walking into a crowd with a loaded gun and firing into it randomly
Andre Breton
There is nothing with which it is so dangerous to take liberties as liberty itself.
Andre Breton
Life’s greatest gift is the freedom it leaves you to step out of it whenever you choose.
Andre Breton
All my life, my heart has yearned for a thing I cannot name.
Andre Breton
Who am I? If this once I were to rely on a proverb, then perhaps everything would amount to knowing whom I 'haunt.'
Andre Breton
It will in the end, be admitted that everything, in effect is an image and that the least object which has no symbolic role assigned to it is capable of standing for absolutely anything.
Andre Breton
