Gaskell advice

Another classic bad boy from Gaskell! She knows how to make you want them!!!

Bad boys in the classics—my cup of tea. Gaskell awesomeness!

A woman knows where her heart is even when denied. -Edith Gaskell knows her stuff, ladies!!!!

Edith Gaskell quoted. Or rather, her world.

This quote tends to carry over in many of her books. I feel this relates to many in the world, be it love, hate, or just plain conversation with others.

Advice to ponder…what if we just relaxed….

It is difficult to allow acceptance that a little girl could grow up, and die, in Hitler’s wrath…and still think people are good.

But it is easy to accept that she knew there is both good and evil in the world. And that good could still win out even if she herself would not. 

“Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.”

—Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl
