And yet, because I am without a doubt mortal, I have the troubling desire to do good, to please, to communicate my warmth, to still be very beautiful sometimes to inspire a taste for beauty. I know that these times are not fertile in grace.. I am afraid tomorrow the grace of woman..may be recognized as a public utility & be socialized to the point of becoming a banal article, a bazaar object like in '93 & that one will find types of tender or amusing women with millions of copies like the creations of the big..fashion stores where it is always the same thing. I want to affirm the superiority of the god over that of the organizer of concerts for the poor. . Rachilde
