Daughter Quote by Mette Ivie Harrison
““Ugly and ungainly. The least dependable creature you ever met. Just when you think you understand her, she changes. If only I had a son," he said bitterly. Over and over he disparaged her, and George would have thought that Beatrice would be so used to it, she could not be hurt further. But he saw her neck grow stiffer and stiffer.””
![“She was utterly unlike what she had been when he first saw her. Both morally and physically she had changed for the worse. [...] He looked at her as a man looks at a faded flower he has gathered, with difficulty recognizing in it the beauty for which he picked and ruined it.” quote by Leo Tolstoy](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/ba3/leo-tolstoy-55_humanity_she-was-utterly-unlike-what-she-had-been_2131592.jpg)
