La musique avant toute chose  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) I like this word decadent; all shimmering and purple and gold  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) Like the rain falling on the city  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) All the rest is literature  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) Take eloquence and break its neck  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) And here is my heart which beats only for you  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) Tears fall in my heart like the rain on the town  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) The poet is a madman lost in adventure  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) Take eloquence and wring its neck  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) A vast black sleep falls over my life sleep, all hope sleep, all desire  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) Here are fruits, flowers, leaves and branches, and here is my heart which beats only for you  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) A poem is really a kind of machine for producing the poetic state by means of words  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) I love this word decadence, all shimmering in purple and gold. It suggests the subtle thoughts of ultimate civilization, a high literary culture, a soul capable of intense pleasures. It throws off bursts of fire and the sparkle of precious stones. It is redolent of the rouge of courtesans, the games of the circus, the panting of the gladiators, the spring of wild beasts, the consuming in flames of races exhausted by their capacity for sensation, as the tramp of an invading army sounds  (Paul Verlaine Quotes) Music before all else, and for that choose the irregular, which is vaguer and melts better into the air  (Paul Verlaine Quotes)
