Status Updates From Lady Chatterley's Lover

"She understood perfectly well why people had cocktail parties, and jazzed, and Charlestoned till they were ready to drop. You had to take it out some way or other, your youth, or it ate you up. But what a ghastly thing, this youth!"

Love love the prose in here 🫶🏻💘

«She would sift the generations of men through her sieve, ans see if she couldn’t find one who would do.—’Go ye into the streets and by ways of Jerusalem, and see if you can find a man.’ It had been impossible to find a man in Jerusalem of the prophet, though there were thousands of male humans. But a man! C’est une autre chose!»

“A woman has to live her life, or live to repent not having lived it.”
