—C.E.M. (Cyril Edwin Mitchinson)
“Women have face-lifts in a society in which women without them appear to vanish from sight.”
—Naomi Wolf (b. 1962)
“In this dream that dogs me I am part
Of a silent crowd walking under a wall,
Leaving a football match, perhaps, or a pit,
All moving the same way.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“We’re the victims of a disease called social prejudice, my child. These dear ladies of the law and order league are scouring out the dregs of the town. C’mon be a glorified wreck like me.”
—Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)
