Pablo Neruda Quotes

A bibliophile of little means is likely to suffer often. Books don't slip from his hands but fly past him through the air, high as birds, high as prices.

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”

“I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul.”

“Love is so short, forgetting is so long.”

“Someday, somewhere - anywhere, unfailingly, youll find yourself, and that, and only that, can be the happiest or bitterest hour of your life.”

“I want to do with you what spring does with the cherry trees.”

“Tonight I can write the saddest lines I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.”

“As if you were on fire from within. The moon lives in the lining of your skin.”

“so I wait for you like a lonely house till you will see me again and live in me. Till then my windows ache.”

“You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep Spring from coming.”
