“Same thing now; my freedom had to be paired with availability, or else it became a disorder.”
Sophie Fontanel

Hilary Mantel
“Those who are made can be unmade.”
Hilary Mantel, Bring Up the Bodies

Anne Brontë
“If you would have your son to walk honorably through the world, you must not attempt to clear the stones from his path, but teach him to walk firmly over them - not insist upon leading him by the hand, but let him learn to go alone.”
Anne Brontë, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall

Anne Brontë
“I imagine there must be only a very, very few men in the world, that I should like to marry; and of those few, it is ten to one I may never be acquainted with one; or if I should, it is twenty to one he may not happen to be single, or to take a fancy to me.”
Anne Brontë, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall

Sophie Fontanel
“If there was a party, everyone in turn would come sit next to me to regale me with how he or sh thought I should live and what I deserved to have. What it boiled down to was that I should live like them. Elvire, one half of a tightly knit couple would forget that her husband was clinically depressed. Guillaume, married to a harpy, maintained that if one laid low and said amen to everything, things worked out. Maria, fed up to the teeth with her children, wanted me to have my own. Assia loved women but it was killing her mother. Patrizio had bruises on his shoulders from his chronically jealous wife. Not one of them could stand my singleness, because it could have been theirs.”
Sophie Fontanel, The Art of Sleeping Alone: Why One French Woman Suddenly Gave Up Sex
