Nancy E. Turner
“Children are a burden to a mother, but not the way a heavy box is to a mule. Our children weight hard on my heart, and thinking about them growing up honest and healthy, or just living to grow up at all, makes a load in my chest that is bigger than the safe at the bank,and more valuable to me than all the gold inside it.”
Nancy E. Turner, These Is My Words: The Diary of Sarah Agnes Prine, 1881-1901

Elizabeth  George
“There are no easy answers, there's only living through the questions.”
Elizabeth George, Missing Joseph

Vera Brittain
“There is an abiding beauty which may be appreciated by those who will see things as they are and who will ask for no reward except to see.”
