E. E. Cummings Quotes

Now the ears of my ears are awake and now the eyes of my eyes are opened.

i will wade out
till my thighs are steeped in burning flowers
I will take the sun in my mouth
and leap into the ripe air
Alive
with closed eyes
to dash against darkness
in the sleeping curves of my body

the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses

nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands

you said Is
there anything which
is dead or alive more beautiful
than my body,to have in your fingers
(trembling ever so little)?
Looking into
your eyes Nothing,i said,except the
air of spring smelling of never and forever.

....and through the lattice which moved as
if a hand is touched by a
hand(which
moved as though
fingers touch a girl's
breast,
lightly)
Do you believe in always,the wind
said to the rain
I am too busy with
my flowers to believe,the rain answered

i imagine that yes is the only living thing.

And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I carry your heart [ i carry it in my heart ]

Be of love (a little)
More careful
Than everything

love is a deeper season
than reason;
my sweet one

Laughing is just another way of showing people your wise

great men burn bridges before they come to them

You are my sun,
my moon, and
all my stars.

who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you

love is the every only god

And the coolness of your smile is
stirringofbirds between my arms
