Camille

“I have almost completed a long novel, but it is unpublishable until my death and England's.”
― E.M. Forster

“In Maurice I tried to create a character who was completely unlike myself or what I supposed myself to be: someone handsome, healthy, bodily attractive, mentally torpid, not a bad business man and rather a snob. Into this mixture I dropped an ingredient that puzzles him, wakes him up, torments him and finally saves him.”
― E. M. Forster

“Why should you care for a woman like me? I'm always nervous or sick, or sad or too gay.”
― Greta Garbo

“You do care a little for me, I know... but nothing to speak of, and you don't love me. I was yours once till death if you'd cared to keep me, but I'm someone else's now... and he's mine in a way that shocks you, but why don't you stop being shocked, and attend to your own happiness.”
― E.M. Forster, Maurice
