“I see cities as organisms, as living creatures. To me Madrid is a man and Barcelona is a woman. And it's a woman who's extremely vain. One of the great Catalan poets, Joan Maragall, wrote this famous poem in which he called Barcelona the great enchantress, or some kind of sorceress, and in which the city has this dark enticing presence that seduces and lures people. I think Barcelona has a lot of that.” PeopleThinkingMenKindDarkCitiesPoetCreaturesVainOrganismsLureSeducingLiving CreaturesBarcelonaMadridEnticingSorceressEnchantress Author:Carlos Ruiz Zafon

“Each state of the human mind has some parable in the physical creation by which it is shadowed forth; nor is it only artists and poets, but even the most abstract thinkers that have drawn from this source. Lively activity we name fire; time is a stream that rolls on, sweeping all before it; eternity is a circle; a mystery is hid in midnight gloom, and truth dwells in the sun. Nay, I begin to believe that even the future destiny of the human race is prefigured in the dark oracular utterances of bodily creation.” MindBelieveHumansStatesArtistNamesDarkRaceDestinySunFireMysteryCreationPoetSourceActivityEternityCirclesHuman RaceAbstractStreamsHuman MindThinkerMidnightLivelyGloomSweepingUtteranceParablesFuture Destiny Book:Works Source: Works
