“Is suffering so very serious? I have come to doubt it. It may be quite childish, a sort of undignified pastimeIm referring to the kind of suffering a man inflicts on a woman or a woman on a man. Its extremely painful. I agree that its hardly bearable. But I very much fear that this sort of pain deserves no consideration at all. Its no more worthy of respect than old age or illness.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (18731954)
