“Real orgies are never so exciting as pornographic books. In a volume by Pierre Louys all the girls are young and their figures perfect; there's no hiccoughing or bad breath, no fatigue or boredom, no sudden recollections of unpaid bills or business letters unanswered, to interrupt the raptures. Art gives you the sensation, the thought, the feeling quite pure--chemically pure, I mean,... not morally.” GivingMeanArtBookRealFeelingsYoungArtistGirlPerfectFiguresPureLettersExcitingBreathsBillsBoredomSensationsVolumePornographyFatigueRecollectionRaptureUnansweredBad Breath Author:Aldous Huxley
“Teenage girls are extremists who see the world in black-and- white terms, missing shades of gray. Life is either marvelous or notworth living. School is either pure torment or is going fantastically. Other people are either great or horrible, and they themselves are wonderful or pathetic failures. One day a girl will refer to herself as "the goddess of social life" and the next day she'll regret that she's the "ultimate in nerdosity.” PeopleWorldSchoolLife IsGirlNextSocialBlackTermWhiteWonderfulMissingRegretOne DayPureUltimateHorribleGrayShadeGoddessBlack And WhiteAdolescenceMarvelousTeenageNext DayTormentPatheticExtremistSocial LifeTeenage GirlShades Of Gray Author:Mary Pipher
