“It is my dream to one day marry Alix H. I have loved her for a long time, but more deeply and strongly since 1889 when she spent six weeks in Petersburg. For a long time, I have resisted my feeling that my dearest dream will come true.”Diary entry of future Tsar Nicholas III of Russia about his future Tsaritsa, Alexandra Feodorovna Romanova.

Why I like Grand Duchess Olga:
Olga and I are the eldest of our siblings, so I feel like I could relate to her. As the eldest, I understand responsibility and the example I have to set for my younger brother and sister. Also she was known to be moody at times, very similar to my own temperament.
After the monarchy fell, she was perceptive and understood the gravity of the situation facing her family and I admire that she tried to draw strength from prayer while in captivity, even though her spirits were low.
