Quote Unquote: Gustave Flaubert

I hate the crowd, the herd. It seems to me always atrociously stupid and vile... The sight of their vulgarities and of their very hats and overcoats, the things they said and the sound of their voices made me feel like vomiting and weeping all at once. Never since I have been in this world have I felt so suffocated by a disgust for mankind.
-Gustave Flaubert
