Charles Dickens
The dew seemed to sparkle more brightly on the green leaves the air to rustle among them with a sweeter music and the sky itself to look more blue and bright. Such is the influence which the condition of our own thoughts, exercise, even over the appearance of external objects.
Charles Dickens
Moths, and all sorts of ugly creatures, hover about a lighted candle. Can the candle help it?
Charles Dickens
Time and tide will wait for no man, saith the adage. But all men have to wait for time and tide.
Charles Dickens
She was too intent upon her work, and too earnest in what she said, and too composed and quiet altogether, to be on the watch for any look he might direct towards her in reply so the shaft of his ungrateful glance fell harmless, and did not wound her.
Charles Dickens
The wind's in the east. . . . I am always conscious of an uncomfortable sensation now and then when the wind is blowing in the east.
Charles Dickens
It was understood that nothing of a tender nature could possibly be confided to old Barley, by reason of his being totally unequal to the consideration of any subject more psychological than gout, rum, and purser's stores.
Charles Dickens
But, tears were not the things to find their way to Mr. Bumble's soul his heart was waterproof.
Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens
There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humor.
Charles Dickens
