Charles Baudelaire
Nature is a temple, where the living Columns sometimes breathe confusing speech Man walks within these groves of symbols, each Of which regards him as a kindred thing.
Charles Baudelaire
One must work, if not from inclination, at least out of despair — since it proves, on close examination, that work is less boring than amusing oneself.
Charles Baudelaire
The more a man cultivates the arts the less he fornicates. A more and more apparent cleavage occurs between the spirit and the brute.
Charles Baudelaire
What do I care if you are good? Be beautiful! and be sad!
Charles Baudelaire

Charles Baudelaire
He who looks through an open window sees fewer things than he who looks through a closed window.
Charles Baudelaire
Blessed art Thou, Lord, who giveth suffering As a divine remedy for our impurities.
Charles Baudelaire

Charles Baudelaire
I will drop into your chest like a vegetal ambrosia. I will be the grain that regenerates the cruelly plowed furrow. Poetry will be born of our intimate union. A god we shall create together, and we shall soar heavenward like sunbeams, perfumes, butterflies, birds, and all winged things.
Charles Baudelaire
Il faut travailler sinon par go u t, au moins par de sespoir, puisque, tout bien ve rifie , travailler est moins ennuyeux que s'amuser. We should work: if not by preference, at least out of despair. All things considered, work is less boring than amusement.
Charles Baudelaire
Common sense tells us that the things of the earth exist only a little, and that true reality is only in dreams.
Charles Baudelaire
Evil is done without effort, naturally, it's destiny good is always the product of skill.
Charles Baudelaire
If photography is allowed to supplement art in some of its functions, it will soon have supplanted or corrupted it altogether, thanks to the stupidity of the multitude which is its natural ally.
Charles Baudelaire
A book is a garden, a party, a company by the way.
Charles Baudelaire
There exist only three beings worthy of respect: the priest, the soldier, the poet. To know, to kill, to create.
Charles Baudelaire
One can only forget about time by making use of it.
Charles Baudelaire
Photographers, you will never become artists. All you are is mere copiers.
Charles Baudelaire
Always be a poet, even in prose.
Charles Baudelaire
Je sais la douleur est la noblesse unique O u' ne mordront jamais la terre et les enfers. I know that pain is the one nobility upon which Hell itself cannot encroach.
Charles Baudelaire
