Writer of "Les Fleurs du Mal": Charles Baudelaire

Hi I'm Charles Baudelaire !

A sweetheart is a bottle of wine, a wife is a wine bottle.

Always be a poet, even in prose.

There exist only three beings worthy of respect: the priest, the soldier, the poet. To know, to kill, to create.

- Charles Baudelaire is so inspiring to me - WaWW

  13. Those 19th century Frenchies were some somber mofos. Anybody who funded Manet and the Impressionists is cool wit me tho.

  20. Wine bottle versus bottle of wine. One is considered trash, the other some to ultimately use up and become trash.

    ... This man had little respect for women.
