Princess Theodora von Auersperg

“A Queen is wise.

She has earned her serenity.

Not by having had it bestowed on her,

but by having passed her tests.

She has suffered and grown more beautiful because of it.

She has proved she can hold her kingdom together.

She has become its vision.

She cares deeply about something bigger than herself.

And she rules with authentic power.”
