The world punishes men and women differently. There is scandal wherever Byron and Shelley go, but they remain men. They are not dubbed hyenas in petticoats for living as they please.

Mary Shelley
I found in those days that my happiest times were outside and alone,
inventing stories of every kind, and as far from my real circumstances as
possible. I became my own ladder and trapdoor to other worlds. I was my
own disguise.
We are lucky, even the worst of us, because daylight comes.
the future always brings something from the past.
