Quotes by Vicente Aleixandre

Hours of solitude, hours of creation, hours of meditation. Solitude and meditation gave me an awareness, a perspective which I have never lost: that of solidarity with the rest of mankind. Since that time I have always proclaimed that poetry is communication, in the exact sense of that word.
– Vicente Aleixandre
Poetry is a succession of questions which the poet constantly poses.
– Vicente Aleixandre
