“A poor gentlewoman, doctor, is the worst thing in the world”

“My roses are my jewels, the sun and moon my clocks, fruit and water my food and drink.”

“There are many marks of a true lady but I believe that one of them is to walk with her head held high while her world falls apart around her.”

“My golden rule has always been to look on the bright side, no matter what. With all the complications in my life, I had to. Because if you can find three good things in any given situation, no matter how dire, I guarantee you'll forget the rotten stuff.”

“Want a partner who can make you feel secure and loved, so you can reach your full potential. Someone who can inspire you and encourage you to try again if things don't work out. Someone who loves you for who you are, not who you might turn into, or who you once were.”

“Children are like poems. They're beautiful -- to their creators -- but to others they're just silly and fucking annoying.”

“Life is like a movie, if you've sat through more than half of it and it’s sucked every second so far, it probably isn't going to get great right at the end and make it all worthwhile. None should blame you for walking out early.”
