In today's popular culture Baudelaire is also known for his quotes. Here are some of them:
- Remembering is only a new form of suffering.
- The worst thing in love is that you can not manage anything without a counterpart.
- The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world that he does not exist.
- Work is not as boring as leisure.
- Strangeness is a necessary ingredient in beauty.
The illustration has been made based on a picture in an old magazine featuring a woodcut by Félix Vallotton. This famous French artist contributed greatly to the development of modern woodcut.
