582 Quotes by Pablo Neruda

Love! Love until the night collapses!

We the mortals touch the metals,the wind, the ocean shores, the stones,knowing they will go on, inert or burning,and I was discovering, naming all the these things:it was my destiny to love and say goodbye.

By night, Love, tie your heart to mine, and the two together in their sleep will defeat the darkness

It was at that agethat poetry came in search of me.

Green was the silence, wet was the light,the month of June trembled like a butterfly.

I hunger for your sleek laugh and your hands the color of a furious harvest. I want to eat the sunbeams flaring in your beauty.

Oh, beloved, and there is nothing but shadowswhere you accompany me in your dreamsand tell me the hour of light.

I want to see thirstIn the syllables,Tough fireIn the sound;Feel through the darkFor the scream.
