Alice James
» Death and Dying » “The difficulty about all this dying, is that you can’t tell a fellow anything about it, so where does the fun come in?”
» Doctors » “I suppose one has a greater sense of intellectual degradation after an interview with a doctor than from any human experience.”
» Education » “I wonder whether if I had an education I should have been more or less a fool that I am.”
» Goodness » “How sick one gets of being ”good,” how much I should respect myself if I could burst out and make everyone wretched for twenty-four hours; embody selfishness.”
» Vulgarity » “It is an immense loss to have all robust and sustaining expletives refined away from one! At. moments of trial refinement is a feeble reed to lean upon.”
