More quotes by Letitia Elizabeth Landon

Letitia Elizabeth Landon
Youth is a season that has no repose.
Letitia Elizabeth Landon
there can be neither politically nor morally a good which is not universal ... we cannot reform for a time or for a class, but for all and for the whole, and our very interests will draw us together in one wide bond of sympathy.
Letitia Elizabeth Landon
Surprises are like misfortunes or herrings - they rarely come single.
Letitia Elizabeth Landon
