[kuunibal]

"Dream! Ecstasy! Happiness! I would give my life to forever keep for myself those eyes, that charming face, that adorable mouth, surprised and delighted, so that no one else may contemplate them for a single moment."

— Werther (1887)

One would belive I became smarter from forgetting my glasses once already, but I did indeed not. Going to the Werther opera at the Salzburger Festspiele today, but this time i do in fact not sit in the second row.

Life reaction:

[kuunibal]

"Provided that I may see those eyes always open, those eyes, my horizon, those gentle eyes, my hope and my sole joy; what does sleep mean to me? The stars and the sun may well reappear in the sky turn by turn. I know not whether it is day, I know not whether it is night; my being remains indifferent to that which is not you!"

— Werther (1887)

Charlotte: Mais vous ne savez pas rien de moi.

(But you do not know anything about me.)

Werther: Mon âme à reconnu votre âme, Charlotte.

(My soul has recognised your soul, Charlotte.)

— Werther (1887)

"She loves me! She thinks about me! What prayer of gratitude and love rises from my heart to my mouth. Oh, how at the moment of homecoming a trifle moves us and touches us. And how everything possesses a piercing charm. Ah, I would like when she returns that Charlotte would find the thoughts that I leave here; all my hope and all my tenderness."

— Werther (1887)

[kuunibal]

Werther: Absence does not have the power to make me forget you.

Charlotte: Why forgetfulness? Think about Charlotte, on the contrary. Think of her peace; be strong, be good.

Werther: Yes... I have as my only wish that you be happy. But to never again see you? It's impossible, no!

Oh, werther how I miss you :(

"Death will not dare to take you while I hold you in my arms!"

— Werther (Act 3) (1887)
