- Quotes
[first lines]
Elizabeth Thatcher: [narrating] Perhaps it was hubris or just stubborn pride that set me on my journey west. My first instinct was to refuse the offer of a teaching post in Coal Valley. My education certainly qualified me for the post, but I feared my privileged upbringing might leave me ill-prepared and unequipped to brave the hardships and dangers out west.
[outlaws approaching on horseback]
Elizabeth Thatcher: It was my sister, Julie, who bolstered my resolve because she so doubted my fortitude. She'd tried to frighten me with tales of cowboys, whiskey-runners, and outlaws, but it only emboldened my determination to prove to her and my parents that I am Elizabeth Thatcher, a strong, independent, capable woman.
Elizabeth Thatcher: [falling to the floor of the coach] I can face any obstacle with courage, grace, and dignity.
