As the end of the century approaches, all our culture is like flies at the beginning of winter. Having lost their agility, dreamy and demented, they turn slowly about the window in the first icy mists of morning,…then they fall down the curtains. – Charles Baudelaire
It is time to get drunk! So as not to be the martyred slaves of Time, get drunk get drunk without stopping! On wine, on poetry, or on virtue, as you wish. – Charles Baudelaire
A frenzied passion for art is a canker that devours everything else. – Charles Baudelaire
Modernity is the transitory, the fugitive, the contingent, which make up one half of art, the other being the eternal and the immutable. This transitory fugitive element, which is constantly changing, must not be despised or neglected. – Charles Baudelaire
In a relationship when things are really great you dont need to say anything and just enjoy the other person. Sometimes with a couple, it gets dark and you dont know what to say and that silence can last all day. Other times you dont want to stop talking because you dont want to lose one another. – Anton Yelchin
