Early on in the movie, there's a scene which recaps the fateful conversation between Wallis Simpson and Thelma Morgan Furness, where Thelma, who's involved with the Prince of Wales, asks Wallis to "take care" of the Prince while she's traveling. I found myself fascinated with the question: who would ask such a thing, even from a close friend? I began looking into who Thelma Morgan Furness was, and when I came out of my Wikipedia rabbit hole, I knew I'd found a book. (less)

“If I could have lived, it would have been with you.”
Bryn Turnbull, The Last Grand Duchess

“My darling girl. Courage does not mean a lack of fear,” she said. “It means meeting whatever the future may hold with grace.”
Bryn Turnbull, The Last Grand Duchess

“You must harden your heart,” she continued. “You must take all of the feelings you wish you could feel—grief, rage, love, despair—and push them deep into the core of yourself. Harden your heart. There’s nothing else to do. No other way to stop yourself from falling into the tide.”
Bryn Turnbull, The Last Grand Duchess
