Sarah Bernhardt: Passion is definitely important!

Longtime fan once sent a letter full of blame to the famous French theater actress Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923).

She was complaining how the actress continuously plays in the role of women impassioned with love, and this respectable lady has never been able to bring her minor daughter into the theater with her.

Sarah Bernhardt really cared about her fans opinions and she made an effort to respond to this lady.

She wrote her a letter: “Dear Madam, please, keep in mind the following: if you yourself weren’t impassioned, you wouldn’t have a daughter now, and, the concern as whether to bring her to the theater or not.”
