Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens
Death may beget life, but oppression can beget nothing other than itself.
Charles Dickens
We lawyers are always curious, always inquisitive, always picking up odds and ends for our patchwork minds, since there is no knowing when and where they may fit into some corner.
Charles Dickens
I have made up my mind that I must have money, Pa. I feel that I can't beg it, borrow it, or steal it and so I have resolved that I must marry it.
Charles Dickens
Newman cast a despairing glance at his small store of fuel, but, not having the courage to say no-a word which in all his life he never had said at the right time, either to himself or anyone else-gave way to the proposed arrangement.
Charles Dickens
