If blue is dream what then innocence? What awaits the heart if Love bears no arrows?
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Life is laughter amid a rosary of death.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
At the heart of all great art is an essential melancholy.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Just as the light and weightless vegetation of saltpeter floats over the old walls of houses as soon as the owner gets careless, so the literary vocation springs up in you.

There is no doubt but that the blacks exercise great influence in North America, and, no matter what anyone says, they are the most delicate, spiritual element in that world.
Federico Garcia Lorca

Green how I want you green. Green wind. Green branches.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
In the garden I will die. In the rosebush they will kill me.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
I'm satisfied. I am progressively making my life and my name in the surest and purest manner. If I catch on in the theater, as I think I will, all the doors will gladly open wide for me.
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
Little black horse. Where are you taking your dead rider?
Federico Garcia Lorca
Image
My head is full of fire and grief and my tongue runs wild, pierced with shards of glass.
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

To see you naked is to recall the Earth.
Federico Garcia Lorca
