Quote by Artist Emerald

“You spoke to her, in hidden dreams...and smiled at her through open doors. She felt your secret love surround her at times. And while alone she felt your breath, heartbeat and more... Serenity of hers is never-ending, soothing....it leads, lures, calls you... Ah, timeless burning flame!.. Her kiss is ocean salty water, you drink and thirst increases...you long and pray for more...”

“Esprits protecteurs de l’humanité, avons-nous vraiment réfléchi aux puissances que déploie la passion chez l’humain ? Avons-nous examiné pourquoi un homme peut traverser un champ de flammes pour atteindre la femme qu’il aime ? Avons-nous réfléchi à l’effet du sexe sur le corps des amants ? À la symétrie de son pouvoir ? Avons-nous étudié ce que la poésie éveille en leur âme, et la marque des mots doux sur un cœur attendri ? Avons-nous contemplé la physionomie de l’amour, analysé pourquoi certaines relations sont mort-nées, d’autres naissent handicapées et atrophiées, tandis que certaines parviennent à l’âge adulte et durent toute la vie des amants ?”

“There are so many things to be done, and progressive minds are overflowing with ideas and proposals. As we consider real-world actions, though, there's one thing worth remembering above all: the future can't be planned by a group of socialist intellectuals designing bullet-pointed lists of what's best for the rest of humanity. Democracy means that people make choices themselves, and good ideas emerge from healthy, collective deliberation... Personally, I'ld like to see a thriving culture of political discussions, where the cafes are full of people passionately hashing out their disagreements about What Must Be Done. Not everyone has to participate in political life, but everyone should at least feel like someone would listen to them if they came up with a solution to a problem.”

“forgetfulness. Forgetfulness breeds self-love - the love of one's own will and thoughts - which is equivalent to the love of pleasure and praise. From self-love comes avarice, the root of all evils (cf. 1 Tim. 6:10), for it entangles us in worldly concerns and in this way leads to complete unawareness of God's gifts and of our own faults. It is now that the eight ruling passions take up residence: gluttony, which leads to unchastity, which breeds avarice, which gives rise to anger when we fail to attain what we want - that is, fail to have our own way. This produces dejection, and dejection engenders first listlessness and then self-esteem; and self-esteem leads to pride. From these eight passions come every evil, passion and sin. Those consumed by them are led to despair and utter destruction; they fall away from God and become like the demons, as has already been said.”
