"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

"I thought that what i did would make a difference... change the world. I thought nothing would ever be the same. But it’s no good. The world is too old, and there’s nothing new. It’s all been said."

Pianist & decadent. Absinthe. Art. Music. History (especially the 19th century). And many more.
