Mary Shelley said this quote

My dreams were at once more fantastic and agreeable than my writings.

~ Mary Shelley

And now, once again, I bid my hideous progeny go forth and prosper. I have an affection for it, for it was the offspring of happy days, when death and grief were but words, which found no true echo in my heart.

~ Mary Shelley

The agony of my feelings allowed me no respite no incident occurred from which my rage and misery could not extract its food.

~ Mary Shelley

I do not wish women to have power over men but over themselves.

~ Mary Shelley
