Quote by Federico García Lorca

“Nadie se da cuenta al tener un libro en las manos, el esfuerzo, el dolor, la vigilia, la sangre que ha costado. El libro es, sin disputa, la obra mayor de la humanidad. — Dime qué lees y te diré quién eres”

The beauty inside is the beauty outside, When there is sense inside there is sense outside. To sense nonsense is the highest sense, To sense love is even higher sense. To put all sense under love is higher still, If there's no love in senses, all sense is nonsense. Love sensible is no love, You can have either sensibility or love. If love doesn't wipe out all our fake order, It ain't love but mere ravings of the daft.”
