I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together in the most innocent sense of the phrase.-Looking for Alaska, John Green 
Finally! They’re so lovely!

[The Queen]  … seemed born to please the national taste. Marie Antoinette, brilliant, lively, witty fond of pleasure and festivity, with all her husband’s goodness and a special grace of her own … having won all hearts even as she charmed every eye…
How was it that so fair a dream vanished, how was it that the welcome of the accession changed into mutterings of disapproval, and then into the clamor of hatred; how was it that a queen, whom a whole people had adored, became to them a monstrous portent first, and later on their victim; … Ah! here we have one of the saddest problems of history…
