Howard Barker quotes
I wish I were
not sensual....
I wish I had not got from my mother,
Or my father was it,
This need to grasp and be grasped,
Because it drives me into the arms of idiots
Who want to crush me.
Wonderful, idiotic crushing in the night.
Can't you just
crush me in the night?

| True poets don't write
Their thoughts with a pen...
they release the ink that flows
From within their heart

I would rather have had
One breath of her hair,
One kiss from her mouth,
One touch of her hand,
Than eternity without it. One!
| From the movie CITY OF ANGELS

Yesterday, I stood at the temple door interrogating the passersby about the mystery and merit of Love.
And before me passed an old man with an emaciated and melancholy face, who sighed and said: 'Love is a natural weakness bestowed upon us by the first man.'
But a virile youth retorted:' Love joins our present with the past and the future.'
Then a woman with a tragic face sighed and said.' Love is a deadly poison injected by black vipers, that crawl from the caves of hell. The poison seems fresh as dew and the thirsty soul eagerly drinks it; but after the first intoxication, the drinker sickens and dies a slow death.'
Then a beautiful, rosy cheeked damsel smilingly said:' love is wine served by the brides of Dawn which strengthens strong souls and enables them to ascend to the stars.'
After her a blackrobed, bearded man, frowning, said:' Love is the blind ignorance with which youth begins and ends'.
Another, smiling, declared:'Love is a divine knowledge that enables men to see as much as the Gods.'
Then said a blind man, feeling his way with a cane:' Love is a blinding mist that keeps the soul from discerning the secret of existence, so that the heart sees only trembling phantoms of desire among the hills, and hears only echoes of cries from voiceless valleys.'
And a feeble ancient, dragging his feet like two rags, said, in quavering tones:' Love is the rest of the body in the quiet of the grave, the tranquility of the soul in the depth of Eternity'.
And a five-year-old child, after him, said laughing:' Love is my father and mother, and no one knows love save my father and mother.'
And so, all passed spoke of Love as the image of their hopes and frustrations, leaving it a mystery just as before.

Rain fell last night- quiet, gentle rain
That tapped against my widow pane
And called me back from troubled sleep,
To soothe a heart too numb to weep.
My loneliness was too deep and real,
And like a wound that would not heal,
It throbbed within me, and I knew
My arms were empty without you.
But as I listened to the sound
Of soft rain falling on the ground,
I heard your voice, tender and clear,
Call my name, and oh my dear,
I threw my window open wide,
To let the sweet rain rush inside.
It kissed my lips, my eyes, my hair,
And love, I knew that you were there.
Tears that my heart could not release
Fell down from Heaven, bringing peace.
Last night while gray clouds softly wept,
I held you in my arms and slept.

Some people come into our lives,
Leave footprints in our hearts,
And we are never ever the same.

When a young man complains
that a young woman has no heart,
it is a pretty sure sign that she has his.

I'll walk for you through the desert heat,
I'll climb the mountain's highest peak.
I'll swim forever in the deepest sea.
Just for you this song I sing
For all the love and joy you bring.
For you I'd try to do the impossible thing...
| From the song PUT THAT ON EVERYTHING by
BRANDY

You have not lived
Until you've found someone worth dying for
