“Les corps des femmes désirées, comme les dépouilles des vipères et les parfums volatils, ne sont pas faits pour dépérir, pourrir et s' évaporer dans notre atmosphère : fioles, bocaux et baignoires : c'est là que doivent durer les fleurs, scintiller les écailles et les femmes s' épanouir, loin de l' air et du temps, ainsi qu'un continent englouti ou une épave qu'on saborde, pour y découvrir plus tard, en cas de survie, un ultime trésor.”

I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”

“Les mots sont comme des oignons, me dit-elle, plus tu ôtes de pleures, plus tu trouve de significations. Et quand tu commences a découvrir plusieurs sens, le vrai et le faux ne veulent plus rien dire.”
