Sunday Citar

John William Waterhouse - "Boreas"


Yet it is in our idleness, in our dreams, that the submerged truth sometimes comes to the top.
Virginia Woolf

Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire.
Jorge Luis Borges

I love the painting you've accompanied with the quotes. I also loved the changes you've made to the site. The artwork on the right hand side is such a nice touch. Love the vibes here : )

Wow. You always come up with the most amazing ideas. This is pure perfection! The quotes that accompany the image are wonderfully suited!

Michelle said...

Yet another meaningful quote that really makes me stop and think. And I feel more than ever that there are really times that I'm wasting the time I have been given. But I'm working on that!

Susan Fobes said...

It's funny that you chose a quote about dreams because I've been having some whoppers lately-maybe I should listen up?

Kelly, I tagged you for a "10 things that make me happy" meme, but if you got this before you don't have to worry about it...

Beautiful painting & quotes.

It's interesting how Monet became known as an "impressionist". I like that you display paintings that aren't usually shown! Do you have a dog named Tucker?

Muthering Heights said...

Those are beautiful quotes!

Kelly, the picture is great, and I love the poem. For me, it comes down to the "I am..."
