    Joseph Brodsky (b. 1940)

    At this moment, who would not remain persuaded that these women were virtuous? Are they not the flower of the country? Are they all not fresh, ravishing, intoxicating with beauty, youth, life and love? To believe in their virtue is a kind of social religion; because they are the world’s ornament and the glory of France.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    Art, whose honesty must work through artifice, cannot avoid cheating truth.
    Laura Riding (1901–1991)
