“The impact Sister Julienne made upon me – and, I discovered, most people – was out of all proportion to her words or her appearance. She was not imposing or commanding, nor arresting in any way. She was not even particularly clever. But something radiated from her and, ponder as I might, I could not understand it. It did not occur to me at the time that her radiance had a spiritual dimension, owing nothing to the values of the temporal world.”
― Jennifer Worth, Call the Midwife: A Memoir of Birth, Joy, and Hard Times

“After that, work and hope. But never hope more than you work”
― Beryl Markham, West with the Night
