coldgreyknight: history meme ♣ 3/7 pairings: Tsar Nicholas II & Tsarina Alexandra Feodorovna It was one of the great love matches of history — the union of the mild and gentle heir to the largest empire on the face of the earth and a beautiful, sorrowful, mystical princess, deeply religious and with a will of iron, whom tragedy marked with a special vengeance. - Tsar: The Lost World of Nicholas and Alexandra by Peter Kurth “I have to thank you for your visit with the girls, you brought sun into my life, despite the rainy weather. I, of course, as always do not have time to tell you half of what I was going to, because when we meet after a long absence, I’m always shy. I just sit there and look at you - which is in itself a great joy for me.“ - Nicholas to Alexandra in a letter “I am yours, you are mine, of that be sure. You are locked in my heart, the little key is lost and now you must stay there forever.” - Alexandra’s note to her fiancee in his diary. [more on Nicholas] [more on Alexandra] -- source link
