'Whatever comes,' she said, 'cannot alter one thing. If I am a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside. It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it.'
'When things are horrible -just horrible- I think as hard as ever I can of being a princess. I say to myself, "I am a princess." You don't know how it makes you forget.'
'One of Sarah's "pretends" is that she is a princess. She plays it all the time - even in school. She wants Ermengarde to be one too, but Ermengarde says she is too fat.'
'She is too fat,' said Lavinia. 'And Sara is too thin.'
'Sara says it has nothing to do with what you look like, or what you have. It has only to do with what you think of, and what you do.'
'If I was a princess -a real princess,' she murmured, 'I could scatter largess to the populace. But even if I am only a pretend princess, I can invent little things to do for people. Things like this. She was just as happy as if it was largess. I'll pretend that to do things people like is scattering largess.'
'It's true,' she said. 'Sometimes I do pretend I am a princess. I pretend I am a princess, so that I can try and behave like one.'
Frances Hodgson Burnett
