The Corset Quotes

“I am more disturbed in my mind than I can possibly express. How could I be otherwise, with a recital such as this?”
― Laura Purcell

“You can live your life through a piece of sewing; that’s what people don’t
realise. You can ply your needle with any emotion in the human heart and the
thread will absorb it. You can sew with tenderness, you can stitch yourself
from panic to calm, you can sew with hate. Sewing in a fury never got me
anything except tangled skeins and botched seams, but you can do it. Better to
wait for hate. A slow, measured hate. No one can tell it’s there, simmering in
your fingertips, except for you and the needle.”
― The Corset, Laura Purcell
