A mismatched outfit, a slightly defective denture, an exquisite mediocrity of the soul - those are all details that make a woman real, alive. The women you see on posters or on fashion magazines -the ones all women try to imitate nowadays- how can they be attractive? They have no reality of their own, they’re just the sum of abstract rules.
Milan Kundera in The Book of Laughter and Forgetting, quoted by Quiet-time.
