Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens
Captain Cuttle, like all mankind, little knew how much hope had survived within him under discouragement, until he felt its death-shock.
Charles Dickens
It will be your duty, and it will be your pleasure too to estimate her (as you chose her) by the qualities that she has, and not by the qualities she may not have.
Charles Dickens
Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.
Charles Dickens
Circumstances beyond my individual control.
Charles Dickens
The Northern onslaught upon slavery was no more than a piece of specious humbug designed to conceal its desire for economic control of the Southern states.
Charles Dickens
And yet I have had the weakness, and have still the weakness, to wish you to know with what a sudden mastery you kindled me, heap of ashes that I am, into fire.
Charles Dickens
Time has been lost and opportunity thrown away, but I am yet a young man, and may retrieve it.
Charles Dickens
Old Marley was dead as a doornail... The wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile.
Charles Dickens
