Quote_1.png
Gustave Flaubert

Quote_1.png
Gustave Flaubert
"As humanity perfects itself, man becomes degraded. When everything is reduced to the mere counter-balancing of economic interests, what room will there be for virtue? When Nature has been so subjugated that she has lost all her original forms, where will that leave the plastic arts? And so on. In the mean time, things are going to get very murky."

Quote_1.png
Gustave Flaubert
"I go dreaming into the future, where I see nothing, nothing. I have no plans, no idea, no project, and, what is worse, no ambition. Something " the eternal 'what's the use?' " sets its bronze barrier across every avenue that I open up in the realm of hypothesis."
Quote_1.png
Gustave Flaubert

Gustave Flaubert

Having fallen so far from so high a position, he loved anything that had also fallen from a great height."
