Dear to me is sleep: still more, being made of stone,
While pain and guilt still linger here below,
Blindness and numbness — these please me alone;
Then do not wake me, keep your voices low.

Additional quotes by Michelangelo

I know well that, at this hour, I could as easily forget your name as the food by which I live by; nay, it were easier to forget the food, which only nourishes by body miserably, than your name, which nourishes both body and soul, filling the one and the other with such sweetness that neither weariness nor fear of death is felt by me while memory preserves you to my mind. Think, if the eyes could also enjoy their portion, in what condition I should find myself.
