Soul's language, Baudelaire - Poster

“Sight does not master the pictures, it is the pictures which master one's sight. They flood one's consciousness.”

“Only children know what they are looking for.”

“Only through art can we emerge from ourselves and know what another person sees.”

“One sees clearly only with the heart. The essential is invisible to the eyes.”

“If the world were clear, art would not be.”

“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.”

“Art hovers around the truth, but with the firm intention not to burn itself.”

“Art is the reflection that the dazzled human soul gives back of the splendor of the beautiful.”

“One must be absolutely modern.”

“To create is always to speak of childhood.”

“Common sense tells us that the things of the earth exist only a little, and that true reality is only in dreams.”

“Tears fall in my heart as rain falls on the town.”

“But where are the snows of yesteryear?”

“Art is the premonition of truth.”

“Perfumes, colors, and sounds respond to one another.”

“Art is born of constraints, lives of struggles, and dies of freedom.”

“The sky is pretty like an angel.”

“Genius is childhood rediscovered at will.”
