Charles Dickens
Image
You have been the last dream of my soul.
Charles Dickens

There are strings in the human heart that had better not be vibrated.
Charles Dickens
Image
Yet, I had nothing else to tell unless, indeed, I were to confess (which might be of less moment still), that no one can ever believe this Narrative, in the reading, more than I believed it in the writing.
Charles Dickens
Image
I know quite enough of myself, said Bella, with a charming air of being inclined to give herself up as a bad job, and I don't improve upon acquaintance...
Charles Dickens
Image
There is no such passion in human nature, as the passion for gravy among commercial gentlemen.
Charles Dickens
Image
It will be your duty, and it will be your pleasure too to estimate her (as you chose her) by the qualities that she has, and not by the qualities she may not have.
