Blog HW : Whats your favorite phrase in another language, and why?

Hey you!

My favorite phrase is...

Je sens fondre sur moi de lourdes épouvantes
Et de noirs bataillons de fantômes épars.

In english, it's something like this :

I feel heavy terrors pouncing on me
And black battalions of scattered phantoms

It's a quote with 2 alexandrines, from the Baudelaire's poem "Women doomed" (which comes from the book "Les fleurs du mal"). I absolutely love it. It doesn't necessarily represent WHO I am (hopefully), but it's my definition of melancholia. I can say it's one of the only quotes I can remember from all the poems I've read in my life, and I just love it. Sometimes I say it out loud and people automatically start think "woooow how brainy you are girl !". Lol, yeaaaah.

I also love this poem because it's about a woman (Hyppolyte) who loves a man, and another woman (Delphine) who loves Hyppolyte. Unfortunately, the poem has been censored because, well... People were not really open-minded at these times.

That's all for today :) tons of french kisses to you, by the way!
