About This Quote

High heels? Painful pleasure. When we put on high heels we are often told that we look great and that they make us feel more confident. However, there is a price to pay for this confidence. High heels are painful and they require the use of our energy and our entire body.

The more energy we expend putting on and taking off high heels the less energy we have to speak and speak well, write and write well, and work and work well. High heels may cause us pain but they also give us pleasure, if only temporarily.
