Quotes by Colette

"You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm."
Colette
"I went to collect the few personal belongings which...I held to be invaluable: my cat, my resolve to travel, and my solitude."
Colette
"It's so curious: one can resist tears and 'behave' very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then someone makes you a friendly sign behind a window, or one notices that a flower that was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed, or a letter slips from a drawer... and everything collapses."
Colette
