Abandoned Quote by Dorothea Dix
“in proportion as my own discomfort has increased, my conviction of necessity to search into the wants of the friendless and afflicted has deepened. If I am cold, they too are cold; if I am weary, they are distressed; if I am alone, they are abandoned.”
![“[To a woman who claimed she'd rather be dead than unconfined and unfashionable:] My dear, if you continue to lace as tightly as you do now, you will not long have the privilege of choice. You will be both dead and out of fashion.” quote by Dorothea Dix](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/0f4/dorothea-dix-29243_choices_to-a-woman-who-claimed-she-d-rather-be-d_49228.jpg)
