I'm reading a book about Italian renaissance drawing (interesting, but predictable), and a bunch of mystery novels from an important local writer which cost me 25€. Too much for 500 pages no matter who's writing.

The Truth About The Marquis de Sade...?
Click on Picture for link to URL location of Original Picture
I would like to express that the Lyrics bellow by Enigma, denote that, other than the ones I already have, others also have doubt concerning The Marquis de Sade's Nature... Particularly when you look at the Lyrics highlighted in Red...
"Sadeness (extended version)
Sade dit moi (sade tell me)
Sade donne moi (sade give me)Sade dit moi quest ce que tu (sade tell me what is it)
Vas chercher ? (that you seek?)
Le bien par le mal (the rightness of wrong)
La vertu par le vice (the virtue of vice)
Sade dit moi pourquoi (sade tell me why the)
L evangile du mal ? (gospel of evil?)
Quelle est ta religion (what is your religion?)
Ou` sont tes fide`les ? (where are your faithful?)
Si tu es contre dieu, (if you are against god,)
Tu es contre l'homme. (you are against man)
* sade dit moi pourquoi le sang (sade tell me why blood)
Pour le plaisir? (pleasure?)
* le plaisir sans l'amour. (pleasure without love?)
* n'y a-t-il plus de sentiment dans is there no emotion in the
Le culte de l'homme? (cult of man?)
Sade es-tu diabolique ou divin? (sade are you diabolical or) divine?Sade dit moi (sade tell me)
Sade donne moi (sade give me)
Sade dit moi (sade tell me)
Sade donne moi (sade give me)
Sade dit moi (sade tell me)
Sade donne moi (sade give me)"[lyrics with an asterisk (*) denote lyrics not found on the album version]
Otherwise I have also heard rumors that I might have been The Marquis de Sade, in a prior incarnation... And, it is "Ironically" coincidental, that we went to the same Mental Hospital: it is today called Esquirol (Charenton). I've looked him up on Wikipedia... Oddly, the facts concerning him changed within a few days... Originally saying that he had been imprisoned for excessive cruelty on the Battle field... Then it was for cruelty against Prostitutes... How ever, I did also get a chance to see a short sample of his writing (which has now "interestingly" disappeared), and to me it seemed... Well revealing... And I've been sued several time for being so good at using words in a hurtful way... Words... that they, the ones hearing them chose to listen to... Hah!
Furthermore, it is said that Sadism is named after him... But I believe that "Sadism" was probably likely named after him more because of how he was treated and not how he treated others... You could also almost deduct this the movie about him, called "Quills", here again, If the story is about me, I don't think it is entirely accurate to reality... Otherwise, ironically I'm also very good at being a sadist... Well Not quite... I only inflict Pain on those I hate, not just anyone... And just like Uriel, I'm into VENGEANCE, not random Pain causing...
Sometimes I think that maybe Sade's writing was actually his form of Vengeance... And/or Protest against the establishment that he strongly disagreed with... Maybe also with the purpose of leaving a record of the Truth about certain people in his stories... The truth about people, who to some possible initiates, the identity was not unknown... And, so that this Truth would be a weapon used against them...
I would also like to point out, that I just noticed that at least today's current editions of the "Marquis de Sade" books, other than "120 days of Sodom" (at least all the ones I found listed on the Internet) are accredited as being books written specifically by the "Marquis de Sade". However, "120 days of sodom", is simply accredited to "Sade", not the "Marquis de Sade", just simply "Sade"! So I wonder if this is supposed to be a subtle clue that the most famous or infamous book by "Sade" is really the work of the "Marquis de Sade"?!? Also I have a theory as to whether it might have been written one of his following incarnation, and like the rest of his books, if my theory about the true motivation behind his writing is correct, is also about a true Story...
See Also My Post about "The Marquis de Sade & The French Revolution", and My Post about "The marquis de Sade & Napoleon"...
Otherwise, the lines:
* sade dit moi pourquoi le sang (sade tell me why blood for)
Pour le plaisir ? (pleasure? )
* le plaisir sans lamour. (pleasure without love? )
* ny a til plus de sentiment dans is there no emotion in the
Le culte de lhomme ? (cult of man? )Strengthen my doubts concerning another of my past incarnations as a Vampire, who's Lust to Live was Replaced with the Lust for of Vengeance which then became the Lust for Violence as well as Pure Carnal Lust... Basically, that I (or who ever was Sade's past incarnation) was Dracula If this is about me & true, there is likely a strong influence of Voodoo/Magic...
