"I've gone from saint to whore and back to saint again, all in one lifetime"

In this quote, Ingrid Bergman reviews the ups and downs of her life, comparing herself to a saint and a slut. She acknowledges that she has actually experienced both extremes, from being viewed as a pure and virtuous saint to being judged and identified as a promiscuous slut. Nevertheless, she also recognizes that these labels are not long-term and that she has had the ability to redeem herself and go back to a state of grace and goodness. This quote talks to the intricacies of humanity and the ability to conquer past errors and be reborn as a much better variation of oneself.
