from "Memoirs of a Geisha":
"Geisha is an artist of the floating world."
"Remember, Chiyo, geisha are not courtesans. And we are not wives. We sell our skills, not our bodies. We create another secret world, a place only of beauty.
The very word "geisha" means artist and to be a geisha is to be judged as a moving work of art."
