“I see when men love women. They give them but a little of their lives. But women when they love give everything.”

“From the beginning of time,
in childhood, I thought
that pain meant
I was not loved.
It meant I loved.”

“I love to play bid whist as much as I love football.”

“I shudder at the thought of men….
I'm due to fall in love again”

“Falling in love happens so suddenly that it seems, all at once, that you have always been in love.”
