baby thinking young
I don't dislike babies, though I think very young ones rather disgusting.
men thinking wicked
For a man to strike any women is most brutal, and I, as well as everyone else, think this far worse than any attempt to shoot, which, wicked as it is, is at least more comprehensible and more courageous.
queens thinking russia
The Government should take a firm, bold line. This delay - this uncertainty, by which, abroad, we are losing our prestige and our position, while Russia is advancing and will be before Constantinople in no time! Then the Government will be fearfully blamed and the Queen so humiliated that she thinks she would abdicate at once.
children women thinking
Men never think, at least seldom think, what a hard task it is for us women to go through this very often. God's will be done, and if He decrees that we are to have a great number of children why we must try to bring them up as useful and exemplary members of society.
happiness marriage thinking
I think people really marry far too much; it is such a lottery after all, and for a poor woman a very doubtful happiness.
girl thinking wife
When I think of a merry, happy, free young girl - and look at the ailing, aching state a young wife generally is doomed to - which you can't deny is the penalty of marriage.
nice pregnancy thinking
I positively think that ladies who are always enceinte quite disgusting; it is more like a rabbit or guinea-pig than anything else and really it is not very nice.
eye thinking england
Just close your eyes—and think of England.
thinking history important
The important thing is not what they think of me, but what I think of them.
anxious bent checking feeble folly join poor queen sex speak wicked
The Queen is most anxious to enlist every one who can speak or write to join in checking this mad, wicked folly of 'Woman's Rights', with all its attendant horrors, on which her poor feeble sex is bent . . .
acquired child equal father fathers follow footsteps great none proud
None of you can ever be proud enough of being the child of SUCH a Father who has not his equal in this world -- so great, so good, so faultless. Try, all of you, to follow in his footsteps and don't be discouraged, for to be really in everything like him none of you, I am sure, will ever be. Try, therefore, to be like him in some points, and you will have acquired a great deal.
good horrible suppose
A strange, horrible business, but I suppose good enough for Shakespeare's day.
soul world miserable
His purity was too great, his aspiration too high for this poor, miserable world! His great soul is now only enjoying that for which it was worthy!
grows
Everybody grows but me.
