Anybody can look at a pretty girl and see a pretty girl. An artist can look at a pretty girl and see the old woman she will become. A better artist can look at an old woman and see the pretty girl that she used to be. But a great artist — a master — and that is what Auguste Rodin was — can look at an old woman, portray her exactly as she is… and force the viewer to see the pretty girl she used to be…. and more than that, he can make anyone with the sensitivity of an armadillo, or even you, see that this lovely young girl is still alive, not old and ugly at all, but simply prisoned inside her ruined body. He can make you feel the quiet, endless tragedy that there was never a girl born who ever grew older than eighteen in her heart…. no matter what the merciless hours have done to her. Look at her, Ben. Growing old doesn't matter to you and me; we were never meant to be admired.

Agree or disagree with: there was never a girl born who ever grew older than eighteen in her heart…. no matter what the merciless hours have done to her.

I like this guy, we'll call him Ben and his brother (they're the same age but they're 2 years older than me) can be Max. My friends teased me and posted photos on Instagram of stuff to do with me liking Ben and also messaged Ben quite a few times... which made him mad and so he messaged me about it, told us to stop, and told me that nothing will ever happen between us. I took it well, but then 2 days later he said hi to me and offered my friend and I chips... which I found odd cause I thought he was mad so then I messaged him later that day and asked him about it. He then told me that he doesn't hate me, he wants to be friends and he just wants all the drama to stop. Not to mention, a few weeks before that he asked me why I like him and if I think something will work (as in if something will happen). After all that he STILL stares at me whether he's alone, with friends or with Max... or with friends AND Max. Max even stares at me when he isn't with Ben, and none of Ben's friends ever tell me that nothing's gonna happen between us or that he doesn't like me like they did when I liked the last guy I liked. Also, I was walking past Ben and Max with my friend and Max looked at me, said something to Ben and then Ben looked at me and said hi then I waved and then Ben just stood and stared at me for a bit and then looked away. I feel like he just told me nothing would happen between us out of anger, what do you think? Thank you so much for reading!
