Chimerical and empty being, your name alone has caused more blood to flow on the face of the earth than any political war ever will. Return to the nothingness from which the mad hope and ridiculous fright of men dared call you forth to their misfortune. You only appeared as a torment for the human race. What crimes would have been spared the world, if they had choked the first imbecile who thought of speaking of you. . Marquis De Sade
About This Quote

The person who wrote the quote above is the Marquis de Sade. He was a French aristocrat and author, who was so famous for his works that he was imprisoned at least twice. His most famous work, "120 Days of Sodom", is a story of a man named Justine, who was tortured by other prisoners. In other words, it is a very disturbing book about torture and sexual abuse.

He also wrote a lot of other books as well, which can be viewed on his Wikipedia page . I’d call him an extreme writer!
