    Arthur Rimbaud
    “Love...no such thing.

    Whatever it is that binds families and married couples together, that's not love. That's stupidity or selfishness or fear. Love doesn't exist.

    Self interest exists, attachment based on personal gain exists, complacency exists. But not love. Love has to be reinvented, that’s certain.”

And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”
