The Annunciation – András Jeles
We exist, and yet we do not exist.
✻
Woman, how infinitely I loved you. If I could part from you I might find more peace, and you might find more happiness. But we are bound by law and custom and the church. Together we must endure, until the grave absolves us.
✻
Everything must glitter, for who would pay money to learn the truth?
✻
Every babe is a Messiah. A bright, rising star to the family, who in time grows into the usual impertinent person.
✻
Life, death, past and present… Naught but marionettes. And if their strings are broken, they are but lifeless rags.
✻
Only a man tired of life, who hangs himself, gives the crowd a free show.
