“There's no doubt that I really have a feeling for the theater. These past few days it has occurred to me to do a comedy whose chief characters are photographic enlargements. Those people we see in doorways. Newlyweds, sergeants, dead girls, an anonymous crowd full of mustaches and wrinkles. It should be terrible. If I focus it well, it will possess pathos without consolation. In the midst of those people I will place an authentic fairy.” PeopleIfsShouldWellsCharacterFeelingsPastGirlDoubtComedyFocusTerribleTheaterCrowdsChiefsNo DoubtFairyMidstConsolationWrinklesDoorwaysMustachePathosSergeantsNewlywedsEnlargement Author:Federico Garcia Lorca

I am afraid of being, on this shore, a branchless trunk, and what I most regret is having no flower, pulp, or clay for the worm of my despair. If you are my hidden treasure, if you are my cross, my dampened pain, if I am a dog, and you alone my master, never let me lose what I have gained, and adorn the branches of your river with leaves of my estranged Autumn.” IfsEyePainNightLosesDogFlowerMastersRegretDespairRiversCrossesLet MeBreathsRoseTreasureBranchesAutumnShoreCheeksSolitaryAccentsWormsClayStatuesTrunksPulpHidden Treasure Author:Federico Garcia Lorca

“A nation that does not support and encourage its theater is - if not dead - dying; just as a theater that does not capture with laughter and tears the social and historical pulse, the drama of its people, the genuine color of the spiritual and natural landscape, has no right to call itself theater; but only a place for amusement.” PeopleIfsDoeSpiritualNationsSocialNaturalSupportDyingTearsColorDramaLaughterTheaterHistoricalTheatreGenuineLandscapeCaptureAmusementPulse Author:Federico Garcia Lorca
