Mirbeau, Octave quotes
1850-1918 French PlaywrightThe universe appears to me like an immense, inexorable torture-garden. Passions, greed, hatred, and lies; law, social institutions, justice, love, glory, heroism, and religion: these are its monstrous flowers and its hideous instruments of eternal human suffering.
Mirbeau, Octave
Torture
Murder is born of love, and love attains the greatest intensity in murder.
