“And
taking her friend’s hand, she put it on her breast, on that firm round
covering of a woman’s heart which the male often finds so satisfying
that he makes no attempt to find what lies beneath it.”
- Guy de Maupassant, born 5 August 1850.
Popular 19th-century French writer, considered one of the fathers of
the modern short story and one of the form's finest exponents.
