After a financial crisis:
“[My husband] is quietly writing by my side in as perfect health as he has ever enjoyed-my chicks quiet in bed and my father smiling... For myself, I think the greatest happiness of this life is to be released from the cares and formalities of what is called the world. My world is my family, and all the change to me will be that I can devote myself unmolested to my treasure.”
-St. Elizabeth Seton
