D.h. Lawrence said this quote

“ Man is willing to accept woman as an equal, as a man in skirts, as an angel, a devil, a baby-face, a machine, an instrument, a bosom, a womb, a pair of legs, a servant, an encyclopaedia, an ideal or an obscenity; the one thing he won't accept her as is a human being, a real human being of the feminine sex. ”

Nobody knows you.You don't know yourself.And I, who am half in love with you,What am I in love with?My own imaginings?

~ D.h. Lawrence

It was not the passion that was new to her, it was the yearning adoration. She knew she had always feared it, for it left her helpless; she feared it still, lest if she adored him too much, then she would lose herself, become effaced, and she did not want to be effaced, a slave, like a savage woman. She must not become a slave. She feared her adoration, yet she would not at once fight against it.

~ D.h. Lawrence

A woman has to live her life, or live to repent not having lived it.
