About Marie Antoinette: Marie Antoinette was Dauphine of France from 1770 to 1774 and Queen of France and Navarre from 1774 to 1792. She was the fifteenth and penultimate child of Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor and Empress Maria Theresa.
I was a queen, and you took away my crown; a wife, and you killed my husband; a mother, and you deprived me of my children. My blood alone remains: take it, but do not make me suffer long.
There is nothing new except what has been forgotten.
I have seen all, I have heard all, I have forgotten all.
No one understands my ills, nor the terror that fills my breast, who does not know the heart of a mother.
I am terrified of being bored.
Courage! I have shown it for years; think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?
