“By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.”

“Jane would be the next queen and her children, when she had them, would be the next princes or princesses. Or she might wait, as the other queens had waited, every month, desperate to know that she had conceived, knowing each month that it did not happen that Henry's love wore a little thinner, that his patience grew a little shorter.

― Philippa Gregory, The Other Boleyn Girl
