    Così parlò Zarathustra ~ Nietzsche, 1885 | Il canto notturno / The Night Song

    Così parlò Zarathustra / Parte seconda / Il canto notturno

    È notte: solo ora si svegliano tutti i canti degli amanti. E anche la mia anima è il canto di un amante.
    Qualcosa di insaziato, insaziabile è in me; che vuole farsi sentire. È in me un desiderio d'amore, che parla il linguaggio dell'amore.
    Io sono luce: ah, fossi notte! Ma questa è la mia solitudine, che io sono cinto di luce.
    Ah, fossi io oscuro e notturno! Come vorrei attaccarmi alle mammelle della luce!
    E anche voi io vorrei benedire, piccole faville stellari e lucciole lassù! ed essere beato dei vostri doni di luce.
    Ma io vivo nella mia propria luce, io bevo in me le mie proprie fiamme, che da me erompono.
    Io non conosco la gioia di chi riceve, e spesso ho persino sognato che il rubare deve essere più beato che il ricevere.

    Il canto della notte | Così parlò Zarathustra 1885 | Friedrich Nietzsche 1844-1900

    Rachel Ferguson | Figurative painter

    Solitude | Rachel Ferguson - American Figurative painter

    Rachel Ferguson, american painter: "Solitude is a form of self protection. It is a place where one can avoid responsibilities to others and deny any need for approval. It allows time to escape from the demands of day to day life. It is simple, contained and still.
    My paintings are meant to convey the comfort of solitude, but they also reveal its limits. The figures are confined by the space they occupy and their bodies are rendered inactive by their thoughts.
    Ultimately, the security their contained poses suggest should lead one to think of entrapment. My work attempts to communicate both a dependence on solitude and a yearning for some outside force to break it".
