The Heiress Quotes

I am the woman in words
Blindfolded by the told
Characters were sold.
Phrases and signs, music pictures
Are only the swords
To make the world goes.
Emptiness, sadness
And happiness are the signature
For the stories are unfold.

Progress in the benefit
Freedom of speech for the heiress.
I am a woman of words
Living in a paradise of language
Believes in stories to be told.

The tramp who begs cold victuals in the kitchen may vote; the heiress who feeds him and endows universities may not. ~ Mary Corinna Putnam Jacobi

...You must be tired of this story, and the time I take to think, and the weariness of my telling; but my life from day to day shows so little variance. Among the riders there is none whose safe return I watch for- I mean none more than any other- and indeed there seems no risk... ~ R.D. Blackmore
