Camille Claudel I am in no mood to be deceived any longer by the crafty devil and false character whose greatest pleasure is to take advantage of everyone. Camille Claudel I am not feeling any better because I cannot stay in bed, having constant cause for walking. They say I leave at night by the window of my tower, hanging from a red umbrella with which I set fire to the forest! Camille Claudel I am scared; I don't know what is going to happen to me. What was the point of working so hard and of being talented, to be rewarded like this? Never a penny, tormented all my life. It is horrible; one cannot imagine it. Camille Claudel I don't want to say anything because I know I am unable to protect you from the harm that I see. Camille Claudel I have all sorts of problems and feel discouraged. Camille Claudel I have been back in Paris for two weeks. Nothing new. Life is still bitter. Camille Claudel I have had the problem of seeing my male model go to Italy and... stay there. Camille Claudel I sleep completely naked to make me believe you are here, but when I wake up it is not the same thing. Most of all, don't deceive me with other women any more. Camille Claudel I thank you for your kind invitation to introduce me to the president of the Republic. Since I have not been out of my atelier for two months, I have no appropriate costume for this circumstance. Please excuse me. Camille Claudel I tolerate my faults but not at all other people's. Camille Claudel I took all my wax studies and threw them in the fire... that's the way it is when something unpleasant happens to me. I take my hammer and I squash a figure. Camille Claudel I will never forget my beautiful days with you in Shanklin, they are certainly the most pleasant ones of my life. Look, I have tears in my eyes just to think about it. I am furious to be here, it is the end of happiness for a whole year. Camille Claudel I would have preferred to be successful here with a piece that cost me a huge amount of money and effort... rather than sending to Bohemia some ordinary works. Camille Claudel I would prefer to have a more appealing job. If I could still change careers, I would prefer it. This unfortunate art is made for long beards and ugly faces rather than for a relatively well-endowed woman. Camille Claudel If you are nice, and keep your promise, we will be in paradise. Camille Claudel It is in fact agreed that I am the plague, the cholera of the benevolent and generous men who are interested in art and that, when I show myself with my plasters, even the Emperor of the Sahara would flee. Camille Claudel Last night, two men tried to force my shutters. I recognized them: they are two of Rodin's Italian models. He told them to kill me. I am in his way; he wants to get rid of me. Camille Claudel My countrymen have commissioned a bust of the Republic. It will be placed on the fountain of my native town. Camille Claudel Send me one hundred francs on our future deals, otherwise I will disappear in a cataclysm. Camille Claudel |
