“She was a great woman with the heart of a little child. Her works praise her; the millions of God's creatures whom she has saved from suffering sing her praise. Where she has gone the recognition of this world counts for little. She has gone where the merciful are blessed, where the pure in heart see God.”

Florence Earle Coates (1850–1927) American writer and poet

David Starr Jordan (1851–1931) American ichthyologist and educator

As quoted in M. Leonard, The Chaperon and Housemother, Builders of Youth (1947), p. 51

“Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl.”

KT Tunstall (1975) Scottish singer-songwriter and guitarist

"Suddenly I See".
Eye to the Telescope (2004)
Context: Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl
She's a beautiful girl.
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it —
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm.
