“The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth.” Jean Cocteau (July 5, 1889-Oct. 11, 1963)
“I met a young man of nineteen or twenty, who at that time vibrated with all the youth of the world. This was Jean Cocteau, then a passionately imaginative youth to whom every great line of poetry was a sunrise, every sunset the foundations of the Heavenly City.” Edith Wharton (1934) From the Crucifixion By Jean Cocteau
