Nicole Kidman, Coco Chanel & Virginia Woolf - Class

Nicole Kidman, Baz Lurhman, Annie Leibovitz, Stephen Daldry and Chanel......

Class is not an acquired taste, class is something you are born with and carry with you either in the gutter or the greatest of halls. Class is reflected in the eyes of the beholder......

As the great Coco Chanel once said :

'I love luxury. And luxury lies not in richness and ornateness but in the absence of vulgarity. Vulgarity is the ugliest word in our language. I stay in the game to fight it.'

And the the one that displays such with the out most clarity, Nicole Kidman in my -ever so favorite- movie The Hours as well as Moulin Rouge as well as Chanel No.5 ad movie.

'Virginia Woolf: Dear Leonard, To look life in the face, always, to look life in the face, and to know it for what it is. At last to know it, to love it, for what it is, and then, to put it away. Leonard, always the years between us, always the years, always the love, always... the hours...'

'Richard Brown: Ah, Mrs. Dalloway... always giving parties to cover the silence. '

'Virginia Woolf: Someone has to die Leonard, in order that the rest of us should value life more. '

'Virginia Woolf: I'm dying in this town.
Leonard Woolf: If you were thinking clearly, Virginia, you would recall it was London that brought you low.
Virginia Woolf: If I were thinking clearly? If I were thinking clearly?
Leonard Woolf: We brought you to Richmond to give you peace.
Virginia Woolf: If I were thinking clearly, Leonard, I would tell you that I wrestle alone in the dark, in the deep dark, and that only I can know. Only I can understand my condition. You live with the threat, you tell me you live with the threat of my extinction. Leonard, I live with it too.'
