Quote by Charles Baudelaire

“¡Asombrosos viajeros! ¡Cuántas historias nobles leemos en vuestros ojos profundos como lar mar! Mostradnos en los estuches de vuestras ricas memorias esas joyas admirables, hechas de astros y éteres. ¡Deseamos viajar sin vapor y sin velas! Para alegrar el tedio de nuestros calabozos, haced que a nuestras almas tendidas como velas, pasen vuestros recuerdos orlados de horizontes. Decidnos, ¿qué habéis visto?”

Quote by Charles Baudelaire
