U, cycles, vibrement divins des mers virides,Paix des pâtis semés d'animaux, paix des rides Que l'alchimie imprime aux grands fronts studieux (Rimbaud)
negarse a hablar del amor me parecía una cuestión de pudor, hasta que alguien me recordó que escribirlo es vivirlo de nuevo, como cantar es orar dos veces
This is Rose Valland, one of the heroes of Nazi-Occupied France. An employee of the Louvre, she kept records of the art stolen by Nazi officers- what was taken, from where, and by who. She was instrumental in the postwar return of countless stolen pieces, and one of the most decorated women in French history.
honorable, this is good! it’s well over time for the Louvre and France to return what has been looted from Portugal during their two pillage campaigns (aimed only at financing their wars), and I am sure from so many places around the world
