Sacrifice is nothing other than the production of sacred things. – Georges Bataille
Intellectual despair results in neither weakness nor dreams, but in violence. It is only a matter of knowing how to give vent to ones rage whether one only wants to wander like madmen around prisons, or whether one wants to overturn them. – Georges Bataille
Sanity is the lot of those who are most obtuse, for lucidity destroys ones equilibrium: it is unhealthy to honestly endure the labors of the mind which incessantly contradict what they have just established. – Georges Bataille
Life has always taken place in a tumult without apparent cohesion, but it only finds its grandeur and its reality in ecstasy and in ecstatic love. – Georges Bataille
