When I think of a merry, happy, free young girl - and look at the ailing, aching state a young wife generally is doomed to - which you can't deny is the penalty of marriage.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
For a man to strike any women is most brutal, and I, as well as everyone else, think this far worse than any attempt to shoot, which, wicked as it is, is at least more comprehensible and more courageous.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
I think people really marry far too much; it is such a lottery after all, and for a poor woman a very doubtful happiness.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
I would venture to warn against too great intimacy with artists as it is very seductive and a little dangerous.The important thing is not what they think of me, but what I think of them.

Quote by -Queen Victoria
I am every day more convinced that we women, if we are to be good women, feminine and amiable and domestic, are not fitted to reign; at least it is they that drive themselves to the work which it entails.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
[On alcohol:] Total abstinence is an impossibility and ... it will not do to insist on it as a general practice.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
No civilization is complete which does not include the dumb and defenseless of God's creatures within the sphere of charity and mercy.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
The Queen is most anxious to enlist everyone who can speak or write to join in checking this mad, wicked folly of Woman's Rights with all its attendant horrors on which her poor, feeble sex is bent, forgetting every sense of womanly feeling and propriety.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
You will find as the children grow up that as a rule children are a bitter disappointment - their greatest object being to do precisely what their parents do not wish and have anxiously tried to prevent.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
The greatest maxim of all is that children should be brought up as simply and in as domestic a way as possible, and that (not interfering with their lessons) they should be as much as possible with their parents, and learn to place the greatest confidence in them in all things.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
The Queen is most anxious to enlist everyone in checking this mad, wicked folly of 'Women's Rights'. It is a subject which makes the Queen so furious that she cannot contain herself.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
We poor creatures are born for man's pleasure and amusement, and destined to go through endless sufferings and trials.

Quote by -Queen Victoria
Do not to let your feelings (very natural and usual ones) of momentary irritation and discomfort be seen by others don't (as you so often did and do) let every little feeling be read in your face and seen in your manner . . .
Quote by -Queen Victoria
Great events make me quiet and calm; it is only trifles that irritate my nerves.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
I positively think that ladies who are always enceinte quite disgusting; it is more like a rabbit or guinea-pig than anything else and really it is not very nice.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
My dearest dearest dear Albert sat on a footstool by my side and his excessive love and affection gave me feelings of heavenly love and happiness I never could have hoped to have felt before! He clasped me in his arms and we kissed each other again and again! His beauty... his sweetness and gentleness - really how can I ever be thankful enough to have such a husband! to be called names of tenderness, I have never yet heard used to me before - was bliss beyond belief! Oh! This was the happiest day of my life! May God help me to do my duty as I ought and be worthy of such blessings.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
I love peace and quiet, I hate politics and turmoil. We women are not made for governing, and if we are good women, we must dislike these masculine occupations.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
Beware of artists, they mix with all classes of society and are therefore most dangerous.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
Nothing will turn a man's home into a castle more quickly and effectively than a dachshund.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
Since it has pleased Providence to place me in this station, I shall do my utmost to fulfil my duty towards my country; I am very young and perhaps in many, though not in all things, inexperienced, but I am sure that very few have more real good will and more real desire to do what is fit and right than I have.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
Give my people plenty of beer, good beer, and cheap beer, and you will have no revolution among them.
Quote by -Queen Victoria
Were women to "unsex" themselves by claiming equality with men, they would become the most hateful, heathen, and disgusting of beings and would surely perish without male protection.
