This may sound odd, but what does Anne’s Quote about her “Little neck” mean? I’ve gone over it many times and tried to laugh at a joke i don’t understand but i want to understand it. Help?…

I think she was just saying that at least her death would be quick because she only had a little neck, nothing much to cut through.

Oh okay. I always thought she was being sarcastic because everyone says she actually had a longer neck and maybe she was referring to her long neck by saying it was little or short… i don’t know something like that.

It’s actually funny as in ‘black humour’-funny… She’s joking about her own death, which is something I believe not anyone could have the courage and strength to do, especially when it is only hours before you depart from this life. She tried to show courage and that she is not afraid by joking. I think she handled things beautifully to the last second and showed the world what she’s made of.. And really, this ‘I have only a little neck’ joke is worth remembering throughout history, it’s really exceptional.

I believe what she meant, when they explained her death would be swift and quick. I believe her response about her little neck, was her joking about her death, like I have a little neck, he could still miss and and it won’t be quite swift and painless. I respect her courage. That is what I got from her quote
