Becoming Elizabeth Costume Appreciation + paintings 1x07 + Elizabeth I as a Princess c. 1546 (William Scrots)

"This painting is the finest and most compelling portrait of Elizabeth I before her accession. It conveys her beauty, dignity, gentleness and learning. Although it was probably painted for her father, Henry VIII, it is first recorded in the collection of her half-brother, Edward VI, where it is described as 'the picture of the Ladye Elizabeth her grace with a booke in her hande her gowne like crymsen clothe'. In 1547 Princess Elizabeth sent a portrait of herself to her brother (the future Edward VI) accompanied by a letter. This was probably not this particular portrait, but the sentiment in the letter indicates the princess' attitude to having her portrait painted. She described the portrait as 'the outwarde shadow of the body' and expressed a wish that her 'inwarde minde' could be more often in her brother's presence." (source)

Titanic (1997) dir. James Cameron

“It is more than a ruse now. It is more than a negotiation. This is not just about finding the best match to impress Lady Whistledown… or the queen, or any member of the ton. This is about a life, Your Grace. My life. I must finally take charge of it. I cannot afford to do otherwise. So I shall not have this go wrong. If you are not in agreement, then you should tell me now.”

If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.
