Quote by Anna Akhmatova

"I have taught myself to live simply and wisely, to look at the sky and pray to God, and to wander long before evening to tire my superfluous flesh."

"This cruel age has deflected me, like a river from its course."

"I am not one of those who left the land to the mercy of its enemies. Their flattery leaves me cold."

"When a man is just beginning to live, he sometimes thinks he is dying."

"Strength comes from within."

"A woman should be proud of who she is."

"A strong woman can overcome anything."

"The only thing I'm good at is killing."
