Pedro Calderon De La Barca Quotes

But whether it be dream or truth, to do well is what matters. If it be truth, for truth's sake. If not, then to gain friends for the time when we awaken.

For all life is a dream, and dreams themselves are only dreams.

For even in dreams a good deed is not lost.

Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises.

Love that is not madness is not love.

What is life? A madness. What is life? An illusion, a shadow, a story. And the greatest good is little enough; for all life is a dream, and dreams themselves are only dreams.

What law, what reason can deny that gift so sweet, so natural that God has given a stream, a fish, a beast, a bird?

When love is not madness, it is not love.
