More quotes by Charles Baudelaire
In art, there is one thing which does not receive sufficient attention. The element which is left to the human will is not nearly so large as people think.
Charles Baudelaire
Unable to suppress love, the Church wanted at least to disinfect it, and it created marriage.
Charles Baudelaire
Alas, human vices, however horrible one might imagine them to be, contain the proof (were it only in their infinite expansion) of man's longing for the infinite but it is a longing that often takes the wrong route. It is my belief that the reason behind all culpable excesses lies in this depravation of the sense of the infinite.
Charles Baudelaire
If the word doesn't exist, invent it but first be sure it doesn't exist.
Charles Baudelaire
So as not to feel the horrible burden of time that breaks your back and bends you to the earth, be endlessly drunk.
Charles Baudelaire
When a singer puts his hand on his heart, it means usually, I will always love you!
Charles Baudelaire
I should like the fields tinged with red, the rivers yellow and the trees painted blue. Nature has no imagination.
Charles Baudelaire
The habit of doing one's duty drives away fear.
Charles Baudelaire
Nations, like families, have great men only in spite of themselves.
Charles Baudelaire

Charles Baudelaire
In our corruption we perceive beauties unrevealed to ancient times.
Charles Baudelaire
Color... thinks by itself, independently of the object it clothes.
Charles Baudelaire
Finer than any sand are dusts of gold that gleam, Vague starpoints, in the mystic iris of their eyes.
Charles Baudelaire
Imagination is an almost divine faculty which, without recourse to any philosophical method, immediately perceives everything: the secret and intimate connections between things, correspondences and analogies.
Charles Baudelaire
Who among us has not dreamt, in moments of ambition, of the miracle of a poetic prose, musical without rhythm and rhyme, supple and staccato enough to adapt to the lyrical stirrings of the soul, the undulations of dreams, and sudden leaps of consciousness.
Charles Baudelaire
There are as many kinds of beauty as there are habitual ways of seeking happiness.
Charles Baudelaire
Any man who does not accept the conditions of life sells his soul.
Charles Baudelaire
The world only goes round by misunderstanding.
Charles Baudelaire
One should always be drunk. That's all that matters...But with what? With wine, with poetry, or with virtue, as you chose. But get drunk.
Charles Baudelaire
Through the Unknown, we'll find the New
