A source of inspiration for millions at home and overseas, Queen Elizabeth II was a symbol of perseverance throughout her 70 years on the throne. Her time as England's longest-reigning monarch saw her travel the globe, meet 13 U.S. Presidents, 15 British Prime Ministers, and four Catholic popes, and — despite her life of great privilege — experience significant tragedy. It was Her Majesty's ability to exude poise amid those difficult events that adds extra weight to this quote, which she wrote as part of an address to reassure Americans in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. Grief is a heavy emotion to bear, but the ability to feel a deep loss means we also experienced a profound sense of love. Through the pain, the sorrow can serve as a reminder of the indelible impact that those we cherish have on our lives.
