I don't think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains.

I believe in the sun, even when it rains.

Boys will be boys. And even that wouldn't matter if only we could prevent girls from being girls.

I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments.

Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness.

Where there is hope...there is life

I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.
