“I had, in these few months, matured my brain, softened the harshness of my desires.
My life, which at first I believed should be so short, now seemed to me to be very, very long; and it gave me great mischievous joy, thinking of the infernal displeasure of my enemies.
I resolved to live.
I resolved to be the great artist I wanted to be.
And, from this return, I dedicated myself to my life. »

Sarah Bernhardt
