Break of Day:
"Look. See what I'm doing. Measure what it's worth. Is it worth my assuming a tarnished reputation in order to nourish in secret, mouth to mouth, the prey that people think I am myself absorbing? Is it worth my turning away from those dawns that you and I love, to give myself to eyelids that I dazzle and their promises of stardom? Judge, better than I can, my hesitant work that I've gazed at too much. Trim your hard gardener's nail!"
- Colette
