“ A marriage is no amusement but a solemn act, and generally a sad one. ”
The important thing is not what they think of me, but what I think of them
~ Queen Victoria
I think people really marry far too much; it is such a lottery after all, and for a poor woman a very doubtful happiness.
For a man to strike any women is most brutal, and I, as well as everyone else, think this far worse than any attempt to shoot, which, wicked as it is, is at least more comprehensible and more courageous.
The Queen is most anxious to enlist everyone in checking this mad, wicked folly of 'Women's Rights'. It is a subject which makes the Queen so furious that she cannot contain herself.
