She was one of the most unimportantly wicked women of her time --because she could not let her time alone, and yet could never be a part of it.

She was the master of the over-sweet phrase, the over-tight embrace. Djuna Barnes
How I loathe the servitude people try to hold up to me as being so valuable. I pity the man who is condemned to it, who cannot generally escape it, but it is not the burden of his labor that disposes me in his favor, it is -- it can only be -- the vigor of his protest against it. Andre Breton
