| Quotes |
[first lines]
Ophelia: You may think you know my story. Many have told it. It has long passed into history... into myth. Ophelia: I have seen more of heaven and hell than most people dream of. But I was always a willful girl, and followed my heart, and spoke my mind. And it is high time I should tell you my story myself. See more » |
