WUNRN
WOMAN CARRYING A TORCH
My life as a woman, belongs to the whole
community.
And as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for
it whatsoever I can.
I want to be thoroughly used up when I
die.
For, the harder I work, the more I
live.
I rejoice in life for its own sake.
Life is no "brief candle" to me.
It is a sort of splendid torch which I have for the
moment.
I want to make it burn as brightly as
possible
Before handing it on to future
generations.
