Max Ernst

Just so I don't forget it in a small journal sitting in my kitchen, here's a quote from Ernst (from his Ecritures, 1970),

human heads, animals, a battle which ends with a kiss (the bride of the wind), rocks, the sea and the rain, earthquakes, the sphinx in her stable, little tables around the earth, Caesar's palette, false positions, a fabric woven of hoarfrost, the pampas, whippings, strings of lava, fields of honor, scarecrows, the fall of the chestnut tree.
