“She knows how to keep him interested in a thousand ways. And her peculiarity, her singularity may not always be easy for him to bear. But surely she has never bored him. Elle sait se faire désirer, but without pretenses. It is her way, and he is under her spell like a lover, and happy when he can touch her lightly to remind her of something!”
― The Reluctant Empress

“Winifred ismét teherbe esett. Bayreuthban még évtizedekkel késÅ‘bb is mesélték, hogy a terhessége elején szüntelenül hányó fiatalasszonyt Siegfried sopánkodva követte a vécére: "De Wini, azt a drága ételt!”

“[A translation into English of a poem Elisabeth wrote two weeks after her wedding]
Oh, had I but never left the path
That would have led me to freedom.
Oh, that on the broad avenues
Of vanity I had never strayed!
I have awakened in a dungeon,
With chains on my hands.
And my longing ever stronger-
And freedom! You, turned from me!
I have awakened from a rapture,
Which held my spirit captive,
And vainly do I curse this exchange,
In which I gambled away you -freedom!- away.
The Reluctant Empress, Chapter 2”

Of vanity I had never strayed!

With chains on my hands.
And my longing ever stronger-
And freedom! You, turned from me!
I have awakened from a rapture,
Which held my spirit captive,
And vainly do I curse this exchange,
In which I gambled away you -freedom!- away.
