Eternity is the sun mixed with the sea
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
Yet this is the watch by night. Let us all accept new strength, and real tenderness. And at dawn, armed with glowing patience, we will enter the cities of glory.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
You feel on your lips a kiss Fluttering, a tiny scrap of life.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
It was the voice of mad seas, roaring immense,/ That shattered your infant breast, too soft, too human.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
-But I've just noticed that my mind is asleep.
Arthur Rimbaud

I wrote silences nights I recorded the unnameable.

Come from forever, and you will go everywhere.

Eternity. It is the sea mingled with the sun.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
I turned silences and nights into words. What was unutterable, I wrote down. I made the whirling world stand still.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
Love...no such thing. Whatever it is that binds families and married couples together, that's not love. That's stupidity or selfishness or fear. Love doesn't exist. Self interest exists, attachment based on personal gain exists, complacency exists. But not love. Love has to be reinvented, that’s certain.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
I understand, and not knowing how to express myself without pagan words, I’d rather remain silent
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
Only divine love bestows the keys of knowledge.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
The Poet makes himself a seer through a long, vast and painstaking derangement of all the senses
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
Romanticism has never been properly judged. Who was there to judge it? The critics!
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
I invented the colors of the vowels!--A black, E white, I red, O blue, U green--I made rules for the form and movement of each consonant, and, and with instinctive rhythms, I flattered myself that I had created a poetic language accessible, some day, to all the senses.
Arthur Rimbaud
Image
I went out under the sky, Muse! and I was your vassal.
Arthur Rimbaud
