Image
In the garden I will die. In the rosebush they will kill me.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Today in my heart a vague trembling of stars and all roses are as white as my pain.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Life is laughter amid a rosary of death.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
The mirror is the mother dew, the book of desiccated twilights, echo become flesh.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Men like to pleasure us, girl. They like to undo our plaits and give us water to drink from their own mouths. That's what makes the world go round.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
At the heart of all great art is an essential melancholy.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
I've often lost myself, in order to find the burn that keeps everything awake
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
At five in the afternoon. It was exactly five in the afternoon. A boy brought the white sheet at five in the afternoon. A frail of lime ready prepared at five in the afternoon. The rest was death, and death alone
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Hail, mute devil! You are the most intense animal. An eternal mystic of the fleshly inferno.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
I'm afraid to be on this shore a trunk without limbs, and what I most regret is not to have flower, pulp, or clay for the worm of my suffering.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
My poetry is a game. My life is a game. But I am not a game.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Green how I love you green. Green wind. Green boughs. The ship on the sea And the horse on the mountain.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Everyone understands the pain that accompanies death, but genuine pain doesn't live in the spirit, nor in the air, nor in our lives, nor on these terraces of billowing smoke. The genuine pain that keeps everything awake is a tiny, infinite burn on the innocent eyes of other systems.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
What matters most has an ultimate metallic quality of death. The chasuble and the wagon wheel, the razor and the prickly beards of shepherds, the bare moon, a fly, humid cupboards, rubble piles, the images of saints covered in lace, quicklime, and the wounding edges of the rooflines and watchtowers.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
The gitano is the most distinguished, profound and aristocratic element in my country, the one that most represents its Way of being and best preserves the fire, the blood and the alphabet of Andalusian and universal truth.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
To see you naked is to recall the Earth.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Death laid its eggs in the wound
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Every step we take on earth brings us to a new world.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
There is nothing more poetic and terrible than the skyscrapers' battle with the heavens that cover them. Snow, rain, and mist highlight, drench, or conceal the vast towers, but those towers, hostile to mystery and blind to any sort of play, shear off the rain's tresses and shine their three thousand swords through the soft swan of the fog.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
The theater has to impose itself on the public, and not the public on the theater... The word Art should be written everywhere, in the auditorium and in the dressing rooms, before the word Business gets written there.
Federico Garcia Lorca
