More quotes by Guillaume Apollinaire

Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy.

Artists are, above all, men who want to become inhuman.

The plastic virtues: purity, unity, and truth, keep nature in subjection.

By two wings a man is lifted up from things earthly: by simplicity and purity.

Purity of heart is to will one thing.

My strength has the strength of ten because my heart is pure.

The purity men love is like the mists which envelope the earth, and not like the azure ether beyond.
