Lacrimile cad în sufletul meu aşa cum ploaia cade peste oraş.
Paul Verlaine
Lesser Ury, Unter den Linden (1920)

Jedes Kunstwerk ist eigentlich eine Skizze, die erst durch unsere Fantasie vollendet wird. (Sigmund Graff)

that this world is really nothing but a moment caught in light,
That behind, or else before it, all that one can see is night.
Just like whirls of dust and powder thousands of live granules play
in a glorious ray's dominion and pass over with the ray.

and in endlessness begotten, endless swarms of light are thronging
towards life, forever driven by an infinite of longing.
And in this great world, we, children of a world grotesquely small,
raise upon our tiny planet anthills to o'ertop the All...

the promises we never return to.
They stay in our mouths,
roughen the tongue, lead lives of their own.
Houses built and unwittingly lived in.

"Nature does not stand still and does not maintain the kind of equilibrium that guarantees the survival of any particular species, least of all the survival of her greatest and most fragile product: man."
