“In two weeks, despite these notes, I shall no longer believe in what I am experiencing now. One must leave behind a trace of this journey which memory forgets. One must, when this is impossible, write or draw without responding to the romantic solicitations of pain, without enjoying suffering like music, tieing a pen to one's foot if need be, helping the doctors who can learn nothing from laziness.”
― Jean Cocteau, Opium: The Illustrated Diary of His Cure

“Living is a horizontal fall.”
― Jean Cocteau, Opium: The Illustrated Diary of His Cure
