Quoets for Poets: Camus & Cohen
"From the moment absurdity is recognized, it becomes a passion, the
most harrowing of all. But whether or not one can live with one's
passions, whether or not one can accept their law, which is to burn
the heart they simultaneously exalt--that is the whole question."
--Albert Camus
"Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash."
--Leonard Cohen

Good share. I’m going to save these!
Glad you got something out of them, Audra–gratified.
Nothing I love better than a clean-burning fireplace and a clean-burning life!
