More quotes by Pablo Neruda
When I sleep every night, what am I called or not called? And when I wake, who am I if I was not I while I slept?
Pablo Neruda
I don't know who it is who lives or dies, who rests or wakes, but it is your heart that distributes all the graces of the daybreak in my breast.
Pablo Neruda
Love, what a long way, to arrive at a kiss.
Pablo Neruda
I spin on the circle of wave upon wave of the sea.
Pablo Neruda
I walked around as you do, investigating the endless star, and in my net, during the night, I woke up naked, the only thing caught, a fish trapped inside the wind.
Pablo Neruda
Do tears not yet spilled wait in small lakes?
Pablo Neruda
Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve on the beach may your eyelids never flutter into the empty distance. Don't leave me for a second, my dearest.
Pablo Neruda
I grew up in this town, my poetry was born between the hill and the river, it took its voice from the rain, and like the timber, it steeped itself in the forests.
Pablo Neruda
A child who does not play is not a child, but the man who doesn't play has lost forever the child who lived in him and who he will miss terribly.
Pablo Neruda
I'm not me but living matter fermenting and forming its own shapes in the fruitfulness of every day.
Pablo Neruda
Then Scale by scale, We strip off The delicacy And eat The peaceful mush Of its green heart.
Pablo Neruda
Tomorrow we will only give them a leaf of the tree of our love, a leaf which will fall on the earth like if it had been made by our lips like a kiss which falls from our invincible heights to show the fire and the tenderness of a true love.
Pablo Neruda
There were thirst and hunger, and you were the fruit. There were grief and the ruins, and you were the miracle.
Pablo Neruda
Love! Love until the night collapses!
Pablo Neruda
Oh each successive night that comes has something in it of an abandoned ember that is slowly burning out, and it falls swathed in ruins, surrounded by funereal objects.
Pablo Neruda
Tell me, is the rose naked or is that her only dress? Why do trees conceal the splendor of their roots? Who hears the regrets of the thieving automobile? Is there anything in the world sadder than a train standing in the rain?
Pablo Neruda
Love, how many roads to obtain a kiss.
Pablo Neruda
In you is the illusion of each day. You arrive like the dew to the cupped flowers. You undermine the horizon with your absence. Eternally in flight like the wave.
Pablo Neruda
The road made wet by the water of August shines like it was cut in full moonlight
Pablo Neruda
Only a burning patience will lead to the attainment of a splendid happiness.
Pablo Neruda
