Courage! I have shown it for years; think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?

Courage! I have shown it for years; think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?

I had friends. The idea of being forever separated from them and from all their troubles is one of the greatest sorrows that I suffer in dying. Let them at least know that to my latest moment I thought of them.

I wasn’t raised, I was built.

We had a beautiful dream and that was all. The interest of my son is the only guide I have, and whatever happiness I could achieve by being free of this place I cannot consent to separate my self from him. I could not have any pleasure in the world if I abandoned my children. I do not even have any regrets.

Let them eat cake.

And I will make thee beds of roses, And a thousand fragrant posies.
