O lesson well and wisely taught
Stay with me to the last,
That all my life may better be
For the trial that is past.
(The Rose Family - Song II)
More Quotes from Louisa May Alcott:
I never wanted to go away, and the hard part now is the leaving you all. I'm not afraid, but it seems as if I should be homesick for you even in heaven.Louisa May Alcott
I have made a plan for my life, as I am in my teens, and no more a child. I am old for my age and don't care much for girls' things. People think I'm wild and queer but mother understands and helps me. I have not told anyone about my plans but I am going to be good.... Now I'm going to work really, for I feel a desire to improve and be a help and comfort, not a care and sorrow to my dear mother.
