Selected Poems Quotes

“Out of three or four in a room
One is always standing at the window
Hair dark above his thoughts
Behind him the words
And in front of him the words, wandering without luggage
Hearts without provision, prophecies without water,
And big stones put there
And stayed, closed, like letters,
With no adresses; and no one to receive them.”
― Yehuda Amichai, Selected Poems

“Sometimes pus
Sometimes a poem.

Something always burst out.
And always pain.”
― Yehuda Amichai, Selected Poems
