Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maxims of a Queen, Christina of Sweden (1626-89) Though the physician, Bourdelot, and a few others amongst her friends possessed either more or less complete collections of these sayings, it is improbable that they were ever intended for publication, or made except to beguile those moments of idleness which occur even in the fullest lives. A manuscript copy of the work was found in the Queens large and straggling handwriting in the Riario Palace in Rome after her death, with the date 1680 inscribed upon it.
