I’VE BROUGHT TO ART -CONSTANTINE CAVAFY

in Poetry of Art by

I sit in a mood of reverie.
I’ve brought to Art desires and sensations:
things half-glimpsed,
faces or lines, certain indistinct memories
of unfulfilled love affairs.
Let me submit to Art:
Art knows how to shape forms of Beauty,
almost imperceptibly completing life,
blending impressions, blending day with day.

Constantine P. Cavafy

PAUL BOURGUET ~ ON DREAMS

in Art & the Unconscious Mind by

“Dreams are but lies, says an old maxim; but when our last hour is at hand, and but a few brief minutes are left to what was I, pale lights that are fast growing dim, who can tell by what mark to distinguish you, O memories of the actual life, from you, O mirages from the dream life.” –
Paul Bourguet
