Daily Dose

From Opium: The Diary of His Cure, by Jean Cocteau, translated by Margaret Crosland


DIFFICULT

"It is difficult to live without opium after having known it because it is difficult, after knowing opium, to take earth seriously. And unless one is a saint, it is difficult to live without taking earth seriously."

From page 93, this edition
