Simone de Beauvoir
“Death itself does not frighten me; it is the jump I am afraid of.”
Simone de Beauvoir, A Very Easy Death

Simone de Beauvoir
“But I know my only defense is to answer, “I think it because it is true,” thereby eliminating my subjectivity;”
Simone de Beauvoir, Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter

Simone de Beauvoir
“These women are, quite simply, alive; they know that the source of true values is not in external things but in human hearts. This gives its charm to the world they live in: they banish ennui by the simple fact of their presence, with their dreams, their desires, their pleasures, their emotions, their ingenuities. The sanseverina, that 'active soul' dreads ennui more than death. To stagnate in ennui 'is to keep from dying, she said, not to live'; she is ' always impassioned over something, always in action and gay too '. Thoughtless, childish or profound, gay or grave, daring or secretive, they all reject the heavy sleep in which humanity is mired. And these women who have been able to maintain their liberty- empty as it has been- will rise through passion to heroism once they find an objective worthy of them; their spiritual power, their energy, suggest the fierce purity of total dedication”
Simone de Beauvoir

Simone de Beauvoir
“A woman alone always seems a little unusual; it is not true that men respect women: they respect each other through their women—wives, mistresses, “kept” women; when masculine protection no longer extends over her, woman is disarmed before a superior caste that is aggressive, sneering, or hostile. As an “erotic perversion,”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

Simone de Beauvoir
“I love you, with a touch of tragedy and quite madly.”
Simone de Beauvoir, Letters to Sartre
