More quotes by Arthur Rimbaud
O seasons, O castles, What soul is without flaws? All its lore is known to me, Felicity, it enchants us all.
Arthur Rimbaud
It was the voice of mad seas, roaring immense,/ That shattered your infant breast, too soft, too human.
Arthur Rimbaud
I turned silences and nights into words. What was unutterable, I wrote down. I made the whirling world stand still.
Arthur Rimbaud
I am the slave of my baptism. Parents, you have caused my misfortune, and you have caused your own.
Arthur Rimbaud
Hay que ser absolutamente Moderno
Arthur Rimbaud
Come from forever, and you will go everywhere.
Arthur Rimbaud
But, truly, I have wept too much! The Dawns are heartbreaking. Every moon is atrocious and every sun bitter.
Arthur Rimbaud
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
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
But the problem is to make the soul into a monster
Arthur Rimbaud
I shed more tears than God could ever have required.
Arthur Rimbaud
-But I've just noticed that my mind is asleep.
Arthur Rimbaud
And from that time on I bathed in the Poem Of the Sea, star-infused and churned into milk, Devouring the green azures where, entranced in pallid flotsam, A dreaming drowned man sometimes goes down.
Arthur Rimbaud
Idle youth, enslaved to everything by being too sensitive I have wasted my life.
Arthur Rimbaud
I wrote silences nights I recorded the unnameable.
Arthur Rimbaud
A thousand Dreams within me softly burn
Arthur Rimbaud
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
I went out under the sky, Muse! and I was your vassal.
Arthur Rimbaud
Only divine love bestows the keys of knowledge.
Arthur Rimbaud
One evening I sat Beauty on my knees – And I found her bitter – And I reviled her.
Arthur Rimbaud
