General Charles De Gaulle
"What is life? An illusion, a shadow, a story, And the greatest good is little enough: for all life is a dream, and dreams themselves are only dreams."
Pedro Calderon de la Barca
"Consider the problem from the point of view of evil, evil being almost always pleasure's true and major charm; considered thus, the crime must appear greater when perpetrated upon a being of your identical sort than when inflicted upon one which is not, and this once established, the delight automatically doubles."
Marquis de Sade
"One must do violence to the object of one's desire; when it surrenders, the pleasure is greater."
Marquis de Sade
