(French, German)



French
Et je m'en vais
Au vent mauvais
Qui m'emporte
Deçà, delà,
Pareil à la
Feuille morte.

Und ich gehe fort
mit dem bösen Wind,
der mich davonträgt,
hierhin, dorthin,
ähnlich dem
welken Blatt.

Quotes for: wind


We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.
 / 





If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable.





Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.





Since I grew tired of the chase
And search, I learned to find;
And since the wind blows in my face,
I sail with every wind.






The dunes change with the wind, but the desert remains the same.





The wind is rising!... We must try to live!











Quotes

Paul Verlaine also said...


Go, nothing is better for the soul
Than to dispel some sadness from a soul!






Music before all else.





The long sobs
Of the violins
Of autumn
Hurt my heart
With a monotonous
Languor






Here are fruits, flowers, leaves and branches,
And here is my heart which beats only for you.






Tears are shed in my heart like the rain on the town.





The art, my children, it is to be absolutely oneself.
