Ellen Key

I was standing all alone against the world outside. You were searching for a place to hide. Lost and lonely, now you've given me the will to survive. When we're hungry, Love will keep us alive.

What makes life dreary is the want of a motive.

Is it so big a mystery what god and man and world are? No! but nobody knows how to solve it so the mystery hangs on.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

A mother who is really a mother is never free.

Honore de Balzac
