愛永々

The concept of being a work of art is never far removed from human consciousness, but, more than anyone else, the true geisha brings it to fulfillment. She is versed in dance and song, plays several instruments, and is adept in all forms of communication from poetry and philosophy to cooking and politics. Her hair is sculpted, and so is her kimono, and her face is painted to look ceramic. She is truthful and honorable, while her discretion is a model of diplomacy. Curiously, this all tends to obscure that perfect beauty of her own person on which her art depends.
