quote
  • "If you have done this work, you can't give it up until you die. Every one of these babies is like my own." (en)
  • "She treated them as her own children, played with them, taught them. She was always among them." (en)
  • "Children in overcrowded institutions cannot possibly have the same chance of development as those who find loving adopters, thus our work is really of national importance, for unfortunate babies, happily placed and growing up under favourable circumstances, are far more likely to provide real assets to the State."
