Quote by Charles Baudelaire

A sweetheart is a bottle of wine, a wife is a wine bottle.

A sweetheart is a bottle of wine, a wife is a wine bottle.

Summary

This quote humorously compares the roles of a sweetheart and a wife by using the analogy of a bottle of wine. The "sweetheart" is likened to a bottle of wine, symbolizing the excitement and pleasure experienced in a romantic relationship - something enjoyable and exciting. On the other hand, the "wife" is compared to a wine bottle, suggesting a more stable and enduring partnership. It implies that while a sweetheart brings temporary delight, a wife represents a commitment and deeper level of connection found in a long-term relationship.

By the time we are women, fear is as familiar to us as air. It is our element. We live in it, we inhale it, we exhale it, and most of the time we do not even notice it. Instead of I am afraid, we say, I don't want to, or I don't know how, or I can't.

You've got it if you want it.

I lay on the bowsprit, with the water foaming into spume under me, the masts with every sail white in the moonlight towering above me. I became drunk with the beauty and singing rhythm of it, and for a moment lost myself- actually lost my life. I was set free... dissolved in the sea, became white sails and flying spray, became beauty and rhythm and the high dim-starred sky... I belonged within a unity and joy to life itself.
