More quotes by Charles Dickens
Let no man turn aside, ever so slightly, from the broad path of honour, on the plausible pretence that he is justified by the goodness of his end. All good ends can be worked out by good means.
Charles Dickens
And yet I love him. I love him so much and so dearly, that when I sometimes think my life may be but a weary one, I am proud of it and glad of it. I am proud and glad to suffer something for him, even though it is of no service to him, and he will never know of it or care for it.
Charles Dickens
A man ain't got no right to be a public man, unless he meets the public views.
Charles Dickens
the sight of me is good for sore eyes
Charles Dickens
An evening wind uprose too, and the slighter branches cracked and rattled as they moved, in skeleton dances, to its moaning music.
Charles Dickens
In love of home, the love of country has its rise.
Charles Dickens
Once a gentleman, and always a gentleman.
Charles Dickens
To be allowed to call her Dora, to write to her, to dote upon and worship her, to have reason to think that when she was with other people she was yet mindful of me, seemed to me the summit of human ambition - I am sure it was the summit of mine.
Charles Dickens
They are Man's and they cling to me, appealing from their fathers. This boy is Ignorance and this girl is Want. Beware them both, and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy for on his brow I see that written which is Doom, unless the writing be erased.
Charles Dickens
Home is like the ship at sea, Sailing on eternally Oft the anchor forth we cast, But can never make it fast.
Charles Dickens
He was consious of a thousand odours floating in the air, each one connected with a thousand thoughts, and hopes, and joys, and cares, long, long, forgotten.
Charles Dickens
Change begets change.
Charles Dickens
There is a wisdom of the head, and a wisdom of the heart.
Charles Dickens
I only ask for information.
Charles Dickens
For a long time, no village girl would dress her hair or bosom with the sweetest flower from that field of death: and after many a year had come and gone, the berries growing there, were still believed to leave too deep a stain upon the hand that plucked them.
Charles Dickens
I stole her heart away and put ice in its place.
Charles Dickens
One disagreeable result of whispering is that it seems to evoke an atmosphere of silence, haunted by the ghosts of sound - strange cracks and tickings, the rustling of garments that have no substance in them, and the tread of dreadful feet that would leave no mark on the sea-sand or the winter snow.
Charles Dickens
Up the two terrace flights of steps the rain ran wildly, and beat at the great door, like a swift messenger rousing those within.
Charles Dickens
To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.
Charles Dickens
Really, for a man who had been out of practice for so many years it was a splendid laugh!
Charles Dickens
