more from Colette...
"Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet."
...nor is modesty either "
" Total absence of humor renders life impossible "
" The lovesick,
the betrayed, and the jealous
all smell alike "
"It is wise to apply the oil of refined politeness
to the mechanism of friendship. "
" The woman who thinks she is intelligent
demands equal rights with men.
A woman who is intelligent does not. "
"The true traveler is she who goes on foot,
and even then ...
she sits down a lot of the time "
"What a wonderful life I've had!
I only wish I'd realized it sooner."
Quotes from
Sidonie Gabrielle Colette
1873-1954
