Quote by Leo Tolstoy

“Và dường như mang trên người tất cả vẻ hào hoa của đêm tiếp tân, Elen đến cạnh Anna Pavlovna. Nàng đẹp đến nỗi không những người ta không thấy nàng có chút vẻ nào làm dáng, mà trái lại nàng hình như có vẻ ngượng ngùng về cái sắc đẹp hiển nhiên và có sức chinh phục quá mãnh liệt của mình. Hình như nàng cũng muốn giảm nhẹ sức thu hút của cái sắc đẹp ấy nhưng không sao được.”

Lull the wind to melodiousing song”

“Wrinkles are devastating for women! A quite undeserved punishment! Because no woman deserves a wrinkled face. Wrinkles should be hidden in the heart, or perhaps not, perhaps not even in your heart, because wrinkles there might be fatal and we ought not to die, though we might as well, because when a woman has wrinkles she's already half dead, and couldn't care less if she died.”
