The ideal has many names, and beauty is but one of them.
From Ninon de L'Enclos
Every action we take, everything we do, is either a victory or defeat in the struggle to become what we want to be.
Actors ought to be larger than life. You come across quite enough ordinary, nondescript people in daily life and I don't see why you should be subjected to them on the stage too.
The resistance of a woman is not always a proof of her virtue, but more frequently of her experience.
Words really flattering are not those which we prepare but those which escape us unthinkingly.
Feminine virtue is nothing but a convenient masculine invention.
The more sins you confess, the more books you will sell.
