St Margaret Cortona Quotes & Sayings

She says, he is a great soul. - A great bladder for dried peas to rattle in! said Mrs. Cadwallader. — George Eliot

The forest smelled fresh here and the ground was soft, carpeted by leaves and fallen pine needles. It was tranquil and enchanting in its way. Ursula was lovely; she just wasn't a naiad.

Women do not have to cast out their sexuality to be 'good sisters'. — Erica Jong
