Quote of the Day (Federico Garcia Lorca, on God and the Soul of a Child)

“I will go very far,

farther than those hills, 


farther than the seas, 


close to the stars, 


to beg Christ the Lord 


to give back the soul I had 


of old, when I was a child…”--Federico Garcia Lorca, “The Ballad of the Little Square,” in The Selected Poems of Federico Garcia Lorca (1955)
