...like a girl
Colette, Paris, 1932 (Agence Mondial) “I am devoted to those who endured, like Colette. It is easier to kiss the world a bitter goodbye than to go on working, writing, changing, enduring the slings and arrows of outrageous aging. Colette endured. And she wrote and wrote and wrote. Whenever I feel really depressed, I think of her, and I keep going.”  - Erica Jong (1973)
