“Το θαύμα του έρωτα είναι πως συμπτύσσει τον κόσμο γύρω από το πλάσμα που σε μαγεύει, η φρίκη του έρωτα είναι πως συμπτύσσει τον κόσμο γύρω από το πλάσμα που σε αλυσοδένει.”

“Yes, very sensible... People die of common sense, Dorian, one lost moment at a time. Life is a moment. There is no hereafter. So make it burn always with the hardest flame.”

“I love to watch the fine mist of the night come on,
The windows and the stars illumined, one by one,
The rivers of dark smoke pour upward lazily,
And the moon rise and turn them silver. I shall see
The springs, the summers, and the autumns slowly pass;
And when old Winter puts his blank face to the glass,
I shall close all my shutters, pull the curtains tight,
And build me stately palaces by candlelight.”
― Les Fleurs du Mal
