Emmanuelle De Maupassant Quotes

One Evening, On Being Quite Occupied By The State Of The Struffoli, I Seated The Duca Di San Orvieta With The Duchessa Opposite, And Between Two Of His Mistresses. They Fought Over His Attentions, Above The Table And Below, Like Squid Intent On Extracting A Mollusc From Its Shell. The Poor Man Was So Distracted That He Hardly Ate A Bite. The Duchessa's Words To Me Afterwards Were Not Lacking In Picturesque Vividness.
