Christina G. Rossetti Quotes

She gave up beauty in her tender youth, gave all her hope and joy and pleasant ways; she covered up her eyes lest they should gaze on vanity, and chose the bitter truth.

Christina G. Rossetti

We are born into this time and must bravely follow the path to the destined end. There is no other way.

There is a quality about women who choose men sparingly; it appears in their walk in their eyes in their laughter and in their gentle hearts.
