“(...) tú sólo, tú, has suspendido la pasión a mis enojos, la suspensión a mis ojos, la admiración al oído. Con cada vez que te veo nueva admiración me das, y cuando te miro más, aún más mirarte deseo. Ojos hidrópicos creo que mis ojos deben ser, pues cuando es muerte el beber beben más, y desta suerte, viendo que el ver me da muerte estoy muriendo por ver. Pero véate yo y muera, que no sé, rendido ya, si el verte muerte me da el no verte qué me diera. Fuera más que muerte fiera, ira, rabia y dolor fuerte; fuera muerte, desta suerte su rigor he ponderado, pues dar vida a un desdichado es dar a un dichoso muerte.” AmorTeatroVersosVerso Author:Pedro Calderón de la Barca
“Tis a dream that I in sadness Here am bound, the scorn of fate; 'Twas a dream that once a state I enjoyed of light and gladness. What is life? 'Tis but a madness. What is life? A thing that seems, A mirage that falsely gleams, Phantom joy, delusive rest, Since is life a dream at best, And even dreams themselves are dreams.” LifeDeathDreams Book:Life Is a Dream: And Other Spanish Classics Source: Life Is a Dream: And Other Spanish Classics
“What surprises you, if a dream taught me this wisdom, and if I still fear I may wake up and find myself once more confined in prison? And even if this should not happen, merely to dream it is enough. For this I have come to know, that all human happiness finally ceases, like a dream.” LifeDreamsMutability Book:Life Is A Dream Source: Life Is A Dream
“We live, while we see the sun, Where life and dreams are as one; And living has taught me this, Man dreams the life that is his, Until his living is done.” DreamsLiving Book:Life Is A Dream Source: Life Is A Dream
