Additional quotes by Charles Baudelaire

Hélas! tout est abîme, — action, désir, rêve,
Parole!

Il n'existe que trois êtres respectables: le prêtre, le guerrier, le poète. Savoir, tuer et créer. Les autres hommes sont taillables et corvéables, faits pour l'écurie, c'est-à-dire pour exercer ce qu'on appelle des professions.

Art is long and time is short.
