They are young and well built, they have another thirty years ahead of them. So they don't hurry, they take their time, and they are quite right. Once they have been to bed together, they will have to find something else to conceal the enormous absurdity of their existence.
JEAN-PAUL SARTRE,
“J'existe, c'est tout.”

“It is the reflection of my face. Often in these lost days I study it: I can understand nothing of this face. The faces of others have some sense, some direction. Not mine. I cannot even decide whether it is handsome or ugly. I think it is ugly because I have been told so. But it doesn't strike me. At heart, I am even shocked that anyone can attribute qualities of this kind to it, as if you called a clod of earth or a block of stone beautiful or ugly.”
Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea
“I marvel at these young people: drinking their coffee, they tell clear, plausible stories. If they are asked what they did yesterday, they aren't embarrassed: they bring you up to date in a few words. If I were in their place, I'd fall all over myself.”
?Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea
History suggests that decadence became "refined" in the nightclubs of Berlin during the Weimar Republic.After 30.01 1933 it supposedly became de Trop- but I wonder.
It s all a question of definition..what is decadent for one may not be decadent for the other..I just sampled some things...yeah the nightclubs of Berlin would be the place to be in the 1930 till 1935 or so...then the nazis took over with terrible results..
Ich bin von Kopf bis FuB
Auf liebe eingestellt
Denn das ist meine natur
und sons gar nichts
Das ist was sol ich machen
meine natur
Ich kann halt lieben
und sonst gar nichts.
Oh if only I could turn the clock back to the 30s.Berlin.To sample the night life.To stroll.down the Unter.den Linden
