張愛玲在相關描述中提到:也許每一個男子全都有過這樣的兩個女人,至少兩個。娶了紅玫瑰,久而久之,紅的變了墻上的一抹蚊子血,白的還是“床前明月光”;娶了白玫瑰,白的便是衣服上的一粒飯粘子,紅的卻是心口上的一顆朱砂痣。其英文翻譯為:Maybe every man has had two such women - at least two. Marry a red rose and eventually she'll be a mosquito-blood streak smeared on the wall, while the white one is "moonlight in front of my bed." Marry a white rose, and before long she'll be a grain of sticky rice that's gotten stuck to your clothes; the red one, by then, is a scarlet beauty mark
