Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont Quotes

Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

Melancholy and sadness are the start of doubt... doubt is the beginning of despair; despair is the cruel beginning of the differing degrees of wickedness.
Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

Sleep is a reward for some, a punishment for others. For all, it is a sanction.
Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

Taste is the fundamental quality which sums up all the other qualities. It is the nec plus ultra of the intelligence. Through this alone is genius the supreme health and balance of all the faculties.
Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont
