"And her sweet red lips on these lips of mine Burned like the ruby fire set In the swinging lamp of a crimson shrine, Or the bleeding wounds of the pomegranate, Or the heart of the lotus drenched and wet With the spilt-out blood of the rose-red wine."

— Oscar Wilde

Passing in any crowd are secret people whose hidden response to beauty is the desire to tear it into bleeding meat.

Next Quote

In contemporary art or movies, it makes perfect sense to be focused on the bleeding edge, on the new idea that's never been previously contemplated.

— Seth Godin
