This apprehension can come out of the blue, in the middle of the day, at the center of a public place, like a cerebral attack.

( "Check and mate" )”
― Erik Pevernagie

― Erik Pevernagie

― A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar

The poorest girl alive may not be able to choose between being Queen of England or Principal of Newnham; but she can choose between rag-picking and flower-selling, according to her taste.

The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.”
― George Bernard Shaw, Mrs. Warren's Profession
