Aber du bist hier bei mir still im Auge des Sturms" Im Auge des Sturms, Wir sind Helden

Falling Life

Image
"Altogether, the task of estimating the length of human life (of animals' we presume not to speak) is beyond our capacity, for directly we say that it is ages long, we are reminded that it is briefer than the fall of a rose leaf to the ground. Of the two forces which alternately, and what is more confusing still, at the same moment, dominate our unfortunate numbskulls - brevity and diuturnity - Orlando was sometimes under the influence of the elefant-footed deity, then of the gnat-winged fly. Life seemed to him of prodigious length. Yet even so, it went like a flash." Orlando,   Virginia Woolf

Another Side

Image
"I’m gonna to have to run away. I’m sure that I belong some other place. I’ve seen another side of all I’ve seen... It keeps me wondering where my family is. It’s hard enough to see the world as it is, and hold on anything, without these quiet times coming round here." Quiet Times, Dido

Territories

Geschichte

Image
Sentarse y contar la misma historia de siempre. Pero como nunca antes nadie la había contado. Con los matices de esta vida. Hablar sobre alguien que no conocía la amistad, a pesar de desearla ardientemente. Y que no sabía que la amistad lo buscaba. Esa noche recibió una llamada. / Die selbe und übliche Geschichte zu erzählen. Das aber wie niemand davor diese Geschichte erzählt hätte. Mit den Nuancen dieses Lebens. Etwas über einen Mann, der die Freundschaft nie erlebt hätte, obwohl er sie leidenschaftlich gewollt hätte, und der von der Freundschaft gesucht wurde. Diese Nacht hat er einen Anruf bekommen.

Soledad

Yearning

Image
"[Love] is always poor, and anything but tender and fair, as the many imagine him; and he is rough and squalid, and has no shoes, nor a house to dwell in; on the bare earth exposed he lies under the open heaven, in-the streets, or at the doors of houses, taking his rest; and like his mother he is always in distress. Like his father too, whom he also partly resembles, he is always plotting against the fair and good; he is bold, enterprising, strong, a mighty hunter, always weaving some intrigue or other, keen in the pursuit of wisdom, fertile in resources; a philosopher at all times, terrible as an enchanter, sorcerer, sophist. He is by nature neither mortal nor immortal, but alive and flourishing at one moment when he is in plenty, and dead at another moment, and again alive by reason of his father's nature." Symposium, Plato (trad. Benjamin Jowett)

Gratitudes

Image
Gratitudes ¡Cuántas cosas hermosas! los confines de la aurora del Ganges, la secreta alondra de la noche de Julieta. El pasado está hecho de jardines. Los amantes, las naves, la curiosa enciclopedia que nos brinda ayeres, los ángeles del gnóstico, los seres que soñó Blake, el ajedrez, la rosa, el Cantar de los Cantares del hebreo, esa flor que florece en el desierto de la atroz escritura, el mar abierto del álgebra y las formas de Proteo. Quedan tantas estrellas todavía; suspendo aquí mi vana astronomía. Jorge Luis Borges (tal como aparece en la edición de 5 poemas hecha por Jaime Correas, reproducida en Traiciones de la Memoria de Héctor Abad Faciolince, p. 99)

Impossible

Image
“... the impossible must be justified by reference to artistic requirements, or to the higher reality, or to received opinion. With respect to the requirements of art, a probable impossibility is to be preferred to a thing improbable and yet possible." Poetics, Aristotle (trad. S.H. Butcher)

On the Way Home
