It is essential to be drunk all the time. That is all: there's no other
problem. If you do not want to feel the appalling  weight of Time which breaks
your shoulders and bends you to the ground, get drunk and drunk again.
With what? Wine, Poetry, or being food please yourself. But get drunk.
And if now and then, on the steps of the palace, on the green grass of a
ditch, in the glum loneliness of your room, you come to, your drunken state
abated or dissolved,ask the wine, ask the wave, the star, the bird, the clock,
ask all that runs away, all that groans, all that wheels, all that sings, all
that speaks, what time it is
 amd the martyred slaves of Time, get drunk, always get drunk! With wine, with
poetry or with eing good. As you please.
- Baudelaire
