Quotes
A poet is a nightingale, who sits in darkness and sings to cheer its own solitude with sweet sounds.
O, wind, if winter comes, can spring be far behind?
Our sweetest songs are those that tell of saddest thought.

"A traveller from the cradle to the grave
Through the dim night of this immortal day."
-Prometheus Unbound (1820) act 4, l. 551
亲爱的，该起身了
通往深渊的桥就要坍塌
以你的炸裂咬住我的意志
怀疑从西西佛斯的石头开始
信仰从你丢掉家门的钥匙开始
我把全部的惶恐和仇恨
交给你，只交给你一人
让我的头再一次
高贵地昂起，直到最黑的时刻降临
