Poetry Quote by Dulce María Loynaz — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Cuando vayamos al mar”

“I work all day, and get half-drunk at night.”

“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.”

“I was the first Chicano to write in complete sentences.”

“How young I seem; I”

“Poetry must be as new as foam, and as old as the rock.”

“We returned to our palaces, these Kingdoms, but no longer at ease here in the old dispensation, with an alien people clutching their gods. I should be glad of another death.”
