Quotes by Eliza Orzeszkowa (?)

“Przeznaczenie stoi za ludźmi, welonem tajemnicy zasłonięte, i w dłoni trzyma kołczan z tysiącem zdarzeń...”
― Eliza Orzeszkowa, Gloria Victis

“Into the fire - and that's an end to it. It'll all burn and not a trace of me will remain on earth...'
Here, as if shocked by the sound of her own words, she made a vigorous movement. Leaning her elbow on the pillow, she lifted herself up and called out, panting quickly and heavily:
'Will there really be no trace, no trace at all?'
In her eyes, which suddenly became brighter, I saw the same uneasy, violent, and almost desperate question. And she tormented herself over it continuously for the next few days.
'Because if nothing, not one thing is left... then why... what's the point?”
― Eliza Orzeszkowa
