MARGUERITE DURAS
French novelist and playwright (1914 - 1996)

One day, I was already old, in the entrance of a public place a
man came up to me. He introduced himself and said, "I've known
you for years. Everyone says you were beautiful when you were
young, but I want to tell you I think you're more beautiful now
than then. Rather than your face as a young woman, I prefer your
face as it is now. Ravaged.
