“The Roman had already bent his knee for long years to the divinity of the emperors, and yet the statues of the gods stood erect; the temples retained their sanctity for the eye long after the gods had become a theme for mockery, and the noble architecture of the palaces that shielded the infamies of Nero and of Commodus were a protest against them. Humanity has lost its dignity, but art has saved it, and preserves it in marbles full of meaning; truth continues to live in illusion, and the copy will serve to reestablish the model. If the nobility of art has survived the nobility of nature, it also goes before it like an inspiring genius, forming and awakening minds. Before truth causes her triumphant light to penetrate into the depth of the heart, poetry intercepts her rays, and the summits of humanity shine in a bright light, while a dark and humid night still hangs over the valleys.”

Aeternum
Smile upon the sun, And bathe in her everlasting grace. Let sorrow rinse from weary skin, And rise to joy, to endless heights.
The true purpose of existence is to sit in the light — to behold nature, to face the sun with gratitude, and to breathe in the quiet joy of being.

Theatre of Tragedy – The Masquerader and Phoenix
Her sweetness never cloy
Further, further, further
His scratching and dallying
Hollow-heartéd eyes, her breasts and vestal heart caress
And like the dove and bird of prey leapeth she aerily
While as the orchestra playeth on travailingly
