Quote by Christopher Hampton
I have always thought of sophistication as rather a feeble substitute for decadence.
Summary
In this quote, the speaker suggests that sophistication is a weak and inadequate alternative to decadence. They imply that sophistication lacks the appeal and richness that decadence offers. It could be interpreted as a critique of attempts to appear refined and cultured, suggesting that indulgence in extravagant or indulgent pleasures holds greater allure and authenticity than presenting oneself as sophisticated. It implies a preference for embracing the pleasure and indulgence of life rather than striving for a refined, but potentially insincere, sense of sophistication.
