I represent all people who are citizens of the Danish nation.

The Reformation was immensely important for all of Danish culture.

I will remain on the throne until I fall off.

Luther exerted a strong influence on Denmark. Suddenly Danish theologians were preaching in Danish and translating the Bible into Danish.

My father had no sons, so I became queen. The only thing I had to do was perform the role.

I can, of course, think what I want, just like everyone else. I simply have to refrain from saying everything I think.

I hope people will remember me as one who did her best - and who wasn't an anachronism.
