More quotes by Charles Dickens
We must meet reverses boldly, and not suffer them to frighten us, my dear. We must learn to act the play out. We must live misfortune down, Trot!
Charles Dickens
Have a heart that never hardens
Charles Dickens
And it is not a slight thing when they, who are so fresh from God, love us.
Charles Dickens
Although a man may lose a sense of his own importance when he is a mere unit among a busy throng, all utterly regardless of him, it by no means follows that he can dispossess himself, with equal facility, of a very strong sense of the importance and magnitude of his cares.
Charles Dickens
I wear the chain I forged in life....I made it link by link, and yard by yard I girded it on of my own free will, and of my own free will I wore it.
Charles Dickens
Home is a word stronger than a magician ever spoke.
Charles Dickens
If I may so express it, I was steeped in Dora. I was not merely over head and ears in love with her, but I was saturated through and through. Enough love might have been wrung out of me, metaphorically speaking, to drown anybody in and yet there would have remained enough within me, and all over me, to pervade my entire existence.
Charles Dickens
She better liked to see him free and happy, even than to have him near her, because she loved him better than herself.
Charles Dickens
I have always thought of Christmas time... as a good time a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time.
Charles Dickens
Veels vithin veels, a prison in a prison.
Charles Dickens
The American woman is a monstrosity.
Charles Dickens
A man can well afford to be as bold as brass, my good fellow, when he gets gold in exchange!
Charles Dickens
[S]he stood for some moments gazing at the sisters, with affection beaming in one eye, and calculation shining out of the other.
Charles Dickens
... It is not my desire to wound the feelings of any person with whom I am connected in family bonds. I may be a hypocrite, said Mr. Pecksniff, cuttingly, but I am not a brute.
Charles Dickens
Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own.
Charles Dickens
Let us leave our old friend in one of those moments of unmixed happiness which, if we seek them, there are ever some, to cheer our transitory existence here. There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.
Charles Dickens
When you drink of the water, don't forget the spring from which it flows.
Charles Dickens
Troubles are exceedingly gregarious in their nature, and flying in flocks are apt to perch capriciously.
Charles Dickens
Now, I return to this young fellow. And the communication I have got to make is, that he has great expectations.
Charles Dickens
For nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress.
Charles Dickens
