Quotes About Sacrifice

Tout homme qui n'accepte pas les conditions de la vie, vend son âme.
~ Charles Baudelaire
Mitä on rakkaus? Tarve tulla ulos itsestään. Ihminen on palvova eläin. Palvominen on itsensä uhraamista ja prostituoimista. Niin on kaikki rakkaus prostituutiota. Kaikista olennoista prostituoiduin on korkein olento, Jumala, koska hän on jokaisen yksilön ylin ystävä, koska hän on rakkauden yhteinen, ehtymätön lähde.
~ Charles Baudelaire
