“Men fight wars. Women win them.”
― Queen Elizabeth I of England

“My care is like my shadow in the sun,
Follows me flying, flies when I pursue it,
Stands and lies by me, doth what I have done.”
― Elizabeth I

“To be a king and wear a crown is a thing more glorious to them that see it than it is pleasant to them that bear it.”
― Queen Elizabeth I

“As for my own part I care not for death, for all men are mortal; and though I be a woman yet I have as good a courage answerable to my place as ever my father had. I am your anointed Queen. I will never be by violence constrained to do anything. I thank God I am indeed endowed with such qualities that if I were turned out of the realm in my petticoat I were able to live in any place in Christendom.”
― Elizabeth I, Collected Works
