Poetry Friday: The Foresters by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

January 9th, 2009 (07:09 am)

Current Mood: awake
Current Song: Better to be Dead by Duncan Sheik from Whisper House

I remain
Mistress of mine own self and mine own soul.

- From Act IV, Scene 1 of The Foresters by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Connecting It to YA Lit: These lines have a deep meaning for a character in This is What I Want to Tell You by Heather Duffy Stone. (Read my review.)

I've got Tennyson up at my place today, too. He was quite the interesting writer.
