My body, or my soul?

I still want to see love. Because once it's real, it's definitely real.

In the end, he said to him, "I let you choose, one of two: my body, or my soul."

He had tried to give him eternity. It's a pity that he only chose the rotten moment.

The more blooming love, the easier it is to bear bitter fruit. His love is like a pure fire that is not oxidized and cannot exist in this world.


In the end he said he found eternity between the sea and the sky, but maybe that was just another tearful lie.

He once wrote: "I am the missing ship / Tangled in the blue threads of the sea... Spicy love fills me with drunken drowsiness / Oh, may my keel be broken! May I be buried in the sea!"

I believe he finally converted to God with sincerity . Because no one in this world is determined to love his soul.

Total Eclipse quotes

  • [first lines]

    Paul Verlaine: Sometimes he speaks in a kind of tender dialect of the death which causes repentence, of the unhappy men who certainly exist, of painful tasks and heartrending departures. In the hovels where we got drunk he wept looking at those who surrounded us, the cattle of poverty. He lifted up drunks in the black streets. He had the pity a bad mother has for small children. He moved with the grace of a little girl at catechism. He pretended to know about everything, business, art, medicine. I followed him, I had to!

    Arthur Rimbaud: I've found it. What? Eternity. It's the sun mingled with the sea.
