Wetness Quotes

• De "La humedad y el agua" ¿Cómo puede una parte del mundo abandonar el mundo? ¿Cómo puede la humedad dejar el agua? No intentes apagar un fuego echando más fuego. No laves una herida con sangre. No importa lo rápido que corras, tu sombra te sigue más que de cerca. A veces está delante. Sólo un sol pleno y cenital disminuye tu sombra. Pero esa sombra te ha servido. Lo que te duele te bendice. La oscuridad es tu vela. Tus límites son tu búsqueda.

• Natural thunder heralds the wetness of fresh water
  high clouds
  to quench the thirst of fields gone dry and parched,
  a messenger of blessed rain,
  but this was as dry as hell must be.
  My distraught perception refused
  to believe it, because of the insane
  suddenness with which it sounded, swelled and hit,
  and how casually it came
  to murder my child.

• Me gusta la tinta Cyclostyle; es tan tinta. No creo que haya nadie que disfrute tanto como yo de que las cosas sean ellas mismas. La asombrosa humedad del agua me excita y me embriaga: la fiereza del fuego, la acritud del acero, el barro indecible. Lo mismo ocurre con la gente.... Cuando llamamos "varonil" a un hombre o "femenina" a una mujer, tocamos la filosofía más profunda.

• La blancura es el color de la muerte, no el negro. La humedad es la vida, la criadora y formadora de vida. Al principio el sol era negro. Así que toda la luz fue absorbida antes de que tuviera la oportunidad de regresar. Y nuestros sueños, entonces, estaban vacíos.

• Walter loves the sea, and I need it in some elemental way that I cannot even come close to verbalizing. I become dim and shriveled somehow at my very core if I am away from the sea too long. When I return to it I seem to fill up and overflow with it, soaking in the vast, sighing wetness of it like a parched vine in a long, soft spring rain.
