Philippa Gregory Quotes

It's Obeying Him As Quickly And As Well As If You Were A Groom Of The Servery. It's Having To Tolerate Anything He Chooses To Do, And Smile As He Does It. I've Served Queen Katherine In These Last Few Years. I've Seen How Life Has Been For Her. I Wouldn't Be A Princess, Not Even For A Princess's Dowry. I Wouldn't Even Be A Queen. I Have Seen Her Shamed And Humiliated And Insulted, And All She Could Do Was Kneel On Her Prie Dieu, Pray For A Little Help, And Get To Her Feet And Smile At The Woman Who Was Triumphing Over Her.
