More quotes by Charles Dickens
Man cannot really improve himself without improving others.
Charles Dickens
Do not repine, my friends, said Mr. Pecksniff, tenderly. Do not weep for me. It is chronic.
Charles Dickens
What greater gift than the love of a cat.
Charles Dickens
I was a blacksmith's boy but yesterday I am - what shall I say I am today?
Charles Dickens
Suffering has been stronger than all other teaching, and has taught me to understand what your heart used to be. I have been bent and broken, but - I hope - into a better shape.
Charles Dickens
There might be some credit in being jolly.
Charles Dickens
Everybody said so. Far be it from me to assert that what everybody says must be true. Everybody is, often, as likely to be wrong as right.
Charles Dickens
I must do something or I shall wear my heart away.
Charles Dickens
Most men are individuals no longer so far as their business, its activities, or its moralities are concerned. They are not units but fractions.
Charles Dickens
What an immense impression Paris made upon me. It is the most extraordinary place in the world!
Charles Dickens
There is nothing so strong or safe in an emergency of life as the simple truth.
Charles Dickens
... Waiter! raw beef-steak for the gentleman's eye,-nothing like raw beef-steak for a bruise, sir cold lamp-post very good, but lamp-post inconvenient-damned odd standing in the open street half-an-hour, with your eye against a lamp.
Charles Dickens
He was by no means opposed to hard labour on principle, for he would work away at a cricket-match by the day together, - running, and catching, and batting, and bowling, and revelling in toil which would exhaust a galley-slave.
Charles Dickens
... As to sleep, you know, I never sleep now. I might be a Watchman, except that I don't get any pay, and he's got nothing on his mind.
Charles Dickens
Polly put the kettle on, we'll all have tea.
Charles Dickens
-Why don't you cry again, you little wretch? -Because I'll never cry for you again.
Charles Dickens
A person who can't pay gets another person who can't pay to guarantee that he can pay. Like a person with two wooden legs getting another person with two wooden legs to guarantee that he has got two natural legs. It don't make either of them able to do a walking-match.
Charles Dickens
The last trumpet ever to be sounded shall blow even algebra to wreck.
Charles Dickens
Really, for a man who had been out of practice for so many years it was a splendid laugh!
Charles Dickens
Christmas time! That man must be a misanthrope indeed, in whose breast something like a jovial feeling is not roused - in whose mind some pleasant associations are not awakened - by the recurrence of Christmas.
Charles Dickens
