A woman has to live her life, or live to repent not having lived it.

D.h. Lawrence
About This Quote

A woman has to live her life, or live to repent not having lived it. There are so many things that a woman could do that would be better than doing nothing. So many things that she can work on that would be worth her time. If she doesn’t have the strength to go ahead with doing those things, then she really ought to repent.

She should consider what it is that she doesn’t want to do. Then she should go ahead and do all of those things.
