Kate Chopin
Quotations
A wedding is one of the most lamentable spectacles on earth.
The bird that would soar above the level plain of tradition and prejudice must have strong wings.
The way to become rich is to make money, not to save it.

The voice of the sea speaks to the soul. The touch of the sea is sensuous, enfolding the body in its soft, close embrace.
But the beginnings of things, of the world especially, is necessarily vague, tangled, chaotic, and exceedingly disturbing. How few of us ever emerge from such beginning! How many souls perish in its tumult!
