interesting quote

"Friday I established with force a life's program; in such instants my solitude is an intoxication: I am, I dominate, I love myself and despise the rest. But I would so like to have the right, me as well, of being simple and very weak, of being a woman; in what a 'desert world' I walk, so arid, with the only oases my intermittent estime for myself. I count on myself; I know that I can count on myself. But I would prefer to have no need to count on myself. Could I again bear to suffer as I suffered in writing these lines?" (Simone de Beauvoir)
