Philippa Gregory Quote

George said gently.'Uncle likes her best,' I said resentfully.'He likes nobody, but he wonders how far she might go.''We all wonder that. And what price she's prepared to pay. Especially if it's me that pays it.''It's not an easy dance she's leading.' George admitted.'I hate her,' I said simple. 'I could happily watch her die for her ambition.
