More quotes by Charles Dickens
And I am quite serious when I say that I do not believe there are, on the whole earth besides, so many intensified bores as in these United States.
Charles Dickens
Any man may be in good spirits and good temper when he's well dressed. There ain't much credit in that.
Charles Dickens
Lawyers hold that there are two kinds of particularly bad witnesses--a reluctant witness, and a too-willing witness.
Charles Dickens
The beating of my heart was so violent and wild that I felt as if my life were breaking from me.
Charles Dickens
The habit of paying compliments kept a man's tongue oiled without any expense.
Charles Dickens
Oh Agnes, Oh my soul, so may thy face be by me when I close my life indeed so may I, when realities are melting from me, like the shadows which I now dismiss, still find thee near me, pointing upward!
Charles Dickens
In fine weather the old gentelman is almost constantly in the garden and when it is too wet to go into it, he will look out the window at it, by the hour together. He has always something to do there, and you will see him digging, and sweeping, and cutting, and planting, with manifest delight.
Charles Dickens
When you drink of the water, don't forget the spring from which it flows.
Charles Dickens
The coffee was boiling over a charcoal fire, and large slices of bread and butter were piled one upon the other like deals in a lumber yard.
Charles Dickens
Mankind was my business... charity, mercy, forbearance, benevolence, were all my business.
Charles Dickens
There are chords in the human heart- strange, varying strings- which are only struck by accident which will remain mute and senseless to appeals the most passionate and earnest, and respond at last to the slightest casual touch.
Charles Dickens
A merry Christmas to everybody! A happy New Year to all the world!
Charles Dickens
Heaven suits the back to the burden.
Charles Dickens
I think the Romans must have aggravated one another very much, with their noses. Perhaps, they became the restless people they were, in consequence.
Charles Dickens
Time was with most of us, when Christmas Day, encircling all our limited world like a magic ring, left nothing out for us to miss or seek bound together all our home enjoyments, affections, and hopes grouped everything and everyone round the Christmas fire, and make the little picture shining in our bright young eyes, complete.
Charles Dickens
Cheerfulness and contentment are great beautifiers, and are famous preservers of good looks.
Charles Dickens
We are so very 'umble.
Charles Dickens
It was a dagger in the haughty father's heart, an arrow in his brain, to see how the flesh and blood he could not disown clung to this obscure stranger, and he sitting by. Not that he cared to whom his daughter turned, or from whom turned away. The swift sharp agony struck through him, as he thought of what his son might do.
Charles Dickens
It was one of those hot, silent nights, when people sit at windows listening for the thunder which they know will shortly break when they recall dismal tales of hurricanes and earthquakes and of lonely travellers on open plains, and lonely ships at sea, struck by lightning.
Charles Dickens
Lord, keep my memory green.
