Debauchery is perhaps an act of despair in the face of infinity.
From Edmond de Goncourt
The English are crooked as a nation and honest as individuals. The contrary is true of the French, who are honest as a nation and crooked as individuals.
Historians tell the story of the past, novelists the story of the present.
As a general truth, it is safe to say that any picture that produces a moral impression is a bad picture.
That which, perhaps, hears more nonsense than anything in the world, is a picture in a museum.
