Pedro Calderon de la Barca Quote
Tú sólo, tú, has suspendidola pasión a mis enojos,la suspensión a mis ojos,la admiración al oído.Con cada vez que te veonueva admiración me das,y cuando te miro más,aún más mirarte deseo.Ojos hidrópicos creoque mis ojos deben ser,pues cuando es muerte el beberbeben más, y desta suerte,viendo que el ver me da muerteestoy muriendo por ver.Pero véate yo y muera,que no sé, rendido ya,si el verte muerte me dael no verte qué me diera.Fuera más que muerte fiera,ira, rabia y dolor fuerte;fuera muerte, desta suertesu rigor he ponderado,

About Pedro Calderon de la Barca
Pedro Calderón de la Barca (17 January 1600 – 25 May 1681) (UK: , US: ; Spanish: [ˈpeðɾo kaldeˈɾon de la ˈβaɾka]; full name: Pedro Calderón de la Barca y Barreda González de Henao Ruiz de Blasco y Riaño) was a Spanish dramatist, poet, writer and military and religious knight of the Order of Santiago. He is known as one of the most distinguished poets and writers of the Spanish Golden Age, especially for the many verse dramas he wrote for the theatre.
Calderón de la Barca was born into the minor Spanish nobility in Madrid, where he lived fir most of his life. He served as soldier and later became a Roman Catholic priest. Born while the Spanish Golden Age theatre was being defined by Lope de Vega, he developed it further by introducing pioneering elements of what are now called metafiction and surrealism. His poetry and plays have since wielded an enormous global influence upon Romanticism, symbolism, Modernism, Expressionism, and even Postmodernism. Calderón is widely regarded as the perfecter of Spanish Baroque theatre and is regarded as Spain's greatest dramatist and one of the finest poets and playwrights of world literature.
