Bettie Page(1923-2008)

After she retreated from the public eye, she was plagued by mental problems and stabbed three people. She was sentenced to a mental institution.

I was not trying to be shocking, or to be a pioneer. I wasn't trying to change society, or to be ahead of my time. I didn't think of myself as liberated, and I don't believe that I did anything important. I was just myself. I didn't know any other way to be, or any other way to live.
