Thomas Hardy Quotes
How I have tried and tried to be a splendid woman, and how destiny has been against me! ...I do not deserve my lot! ...O, the cruelty of putting me into this ill-conceived world!

O, how hard it is of Heaven to devise such tortures for me, who have done no harm to heaven at all!
