Federico Garcia Lorca

The day that I can no longer love, I will die.

There are wounds that bleed in the soul, not in the body.

The most important thing for a writer is to feel, not to think.

The theater is a school of tears and laughter, and a free forum where man can question old or erroneous norms and explain with living examples the eternal laws of the heart and the feelings of man.

The poet must be a teacher, a guide, a prophet.

My heart has a wound of five corners.

The silence is so great that it seems as if the world has died.

I hate the man who doesn't risk his life for what he believes in.

To be born is a matter of luck; to die, a matter of destiny.

The only thing that matters is love.

I sing of the dark horse that gallops through the night.

The most dangerous animal is the one that has been tamed.

The poet is a small god.

I want to be a poet, not a man.

The moment you realize you are not worthy of love, you die.

Every step you take on earth is a step closer to your grave.

The poem is a wound that sings.

I want to sleep the sleep of the just, and the sleep of the unjust.

The only way to escape the abyss is to look at it, measure it, sound it and then go a step farther.

My childhood is a garden of wonders, a garden of delights, a garden of sadness.
