Ethel Vance

  • “... confessions are always pretentious and very hard to listen to.”

  • “A man can choose his enemies but not his supporters.”

  • “... adolescence is a sort of underworld we have to live through. Everything is in us, even vice and crime. At the same time we discover free will. I wonder that it doesn't tear us off our bases for good and all.”

Ethel Vance, U.S. writer

(1891 - 1991)
