Shakespeare

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more...

Disguise fair nature with hard-favored rage,
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect.

None of us find as much happiness in this life as we should. The chairman

Sayuri Nitta: She paints her face to hide her face. Her eyes are deep water. It is not for Geisha to want. It is not for geisha to feel. Geisha is an artist of the floating world. She dances, she sings. She entertains you, whatever you want. The rest is shadows, the rest is secret. -From Memoirs of a Geisha
