What one hides is worth neither more nor less than what one finds. And what one hides from oneself is worth neither more nor less than what one allows others to find.

There is nothing with which it is so dangerous to take liberties as liberty itself.

Nothing retains less of desire in art, in science, than this will to industry, booty, possession.

No one who has lived even for a fleeting moment for something other than life in its conventional sense and has experienced the exaltation that this feeling produces can then renounce his new freedom so easily.

Who am I? If this once I were to rely on a proverb, then perhaps everything would amount to knowing whom I ‘haunt.’

Every time you date someone with an issue that you have to work to ignore, you’re settling.

If I place love above everything, it is because for me it is the most desperate, the most despairing state of affairs imaginable.

The mind which plunges into Surrealism, relives with burning excitement the best part of childhood.

Firsts Quotes

The simplest Surrealist act consists of dashing down into the street, pistol in hand, and firing blindly, as fast as you can pull the trigger, into the crowd.

It was in the black mirror of anarchism that surrealism first recognised itself.

Firsts Quotes

To reduce the imagination to a state of slavery – even though it would mean the elimination of what is commonly called happiness – is to betray all sense of absolute justice within oneself. Imagination alone offers me some intimation of what can be.

Betrayal Quotes

Man proposes and dispose. He and he alone can determine whether he is completely master of himself, that is, whether he maintains the body of his desires, daily more formidable, in a state of anarchy.

Nadja Quotes

La beauté sera CONVULSIVE ou ne sera pas.

Nadja Quotes

Le coeur humain est beau comme un sismographe.

Nadja Quotes

Objects seen in dreams should be manufactured and put on sale.

Nous souhaitons de toutes nos forces que les révolutions, les guerres et les insurrections coloniales viennent anéantir cette civilisation occidentale dont vous défendez jusqu’en Orient la vermine et nous appelons cette destruction comme l’état de choses le moins inacceptable pour l’esprit. (...) Nous saisissons cette occasion pour nous désolidariser publiquement de tout ce qui est français, en paroles et en actions. Nous déclarons trouver la trahison et tout ce qui, d’une façon ou d’une autre, peut nuire à la sûreté de l’Etat beaucoup plus conciliable avec la poésie que la vente de « grosses quantités de lard » pour le compte d’une nation de porcs et de chiens. C’est une singulière méconnaissance des facultés propres et des possibilités de l’esprit qui fait périodiquement rechercher leur salut à des goujats de votre espèce dans une tradition catholique ou gréco-romaine. Le salut pour nous n’est nulle part. Nous tenons Rimbaud pour un homme qui a désespéré de son salut et dont l’oeuvre et la vie sont de purs témoignages de perdition. Catholicisme, classicisme gréco-romain, nous vous abandonnons à vos bondieuseries infâmes. Qu’elles vous profitent de toutes manières ; engraissez encore, crevez sous l’admiration et le respect de vos concitoyens. Ecrivez, priez et bavez ; nous réclamons le déshonneur de vous avoir traité une fois pour toutes de cuistre et de canaille.

Lettre ouverte Quotes Tract surréaliste Quotes

Aunque haya podido desearlo, aunque quizás también haya podido ilusionarme con ello, quizás no estuve a la altura de lo que ella me proponía. Pero ¿qué me proponía? Poco importa. Sólo el amor en el sentido en que yo lo entiendo —pero, en ese caso, el misterioso, el improbable, el único, el que todo lo une y el indudable amor— tal y como a fin de cuentas sólo puede ser a toda prueba, hubiera podido en este caso obrar el milagro.

Nadja Quotes

Hacía mucho tiempo que yo había dejado de entenderme con Nadja. Lo cierto es que quizás nunca nos hemos entendido, al menos acerca de la manera deafrontar las cosas sencillas de la existencia.

Nadja Quotes

Muchas veces he vuelto a ver a Nadja, su pensamiento se me ha hecho aún más inteligible, y su expresión ganó en agilidad, en originalidad, en profundidad. Es muy posible que al mismo tiempo el desastre irreparable que arrastraba consigo una parte de ella misma, la más humanamente precisa, ese desastre que advertí aquel día, me haya alejado paulatinamente de ella.

Nadja Quotes

Birds will be boredIf I'd forgotten somethingRing the bells of those school dismissals in the seaWhat we shall call pensive borageWe start by giving the solution to the contestTo wit how many tears can be held in a woman's hand1. as little as possible2. in a medium-sized handWhile I crumple this star-lit paperAnd while the everlasting flesh has once and for all takenpossession of the mountain summitsI live like a recluse in a little house in the VaucluseHeart king's order

Poems Quotes Surrealism Quotes

Nhan sắc sẽ là nhan sắc CO QUẮP hoặc sẽ không là gì cả.

Nadja Quotes

Lâchez tout. Lâchez Dada. Lâchez votre femme, lâchez votre maîtresse. Lâchez vos espérances et vos craintes. Semez vos enfants au coin d'un bois. Lâchez la proie pour l'ombre. Lâchez au besoin une vie aisée, ce qu'on vous donne pour une situation d'avenir. Partez sur les routes.

Desde el primero hasta el último día, tuve a Nadja por un genio libre, algo así como uno de esos espíritus etéreos a los que determinadas prácticas de magia permiten atraerse momentáneamente, pero que de ninguna manera podrían ser sometidos.
