From The Light Shines in Darkness by Leo, graf Tolstoy

female · defiant · 59 sec

I cannot bear it meekly. My whole life was wrapped up in my son; and you have taken him from me and ruined him. I cannot be calm. I have come to you--it is my last attempt to tell you that you have ruined him and that it is for you to save him. Go and prevail on them to set him free. Go and see the Governor-General, the Emperor, or whom you please. It is your duty to do it. If you don't do it, I know what I shall do. You will have to answer to me for it! NICHOLAS IVÁNOVICH. Teach me what to do. I am ready to do anything.
