Edward Gorey cytaty

„W domu księstwa Pronto (adres; Via.
Morbida 13) – dzika chryja:
Głowę, i to w dodatku nieżywą,
Książę znalazł w pudle na pieczywo,
A nikt z służby nie wie, skąd i czyja.”

Edward Gorey

Illuminated by the moon,
Regrets her act, and finds appalling
The thought she will be dead so soon.”

Who smoked without stopping all day;
As pack followed pack,
Her lungs first turned black,
And eventually rotted away.”
