Jude MorganBut we disposable women have to be realistic in this life, you know. Else we get itchy and discontented and start contemplating the kitchen knife and wondering whether it wouldn't look nicer between someone's shoulder-blades.
About This Quote
Discontented women are not happy with their lot in life. They are unhappy with the way they look, who they are, and what they do. Many women become discontented when they realize that they are Cinderella characters. The idea of Cinderella is that her prince will rescue her from the reality of her life which is that she is a servant.
The fact that she has to scrub floors and wash laundry can be very difficult. She needs help to get out of the rut she finds herself in.
