I can only say with deeper sincerity and fuller significance what I have always said in theory - Wait God's will.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
What necessity is there to dwell on the Past, when the Present is so much surer-the Future so much brighter?

The charm of variety there was not, nor the excitement of incident but I liked peace so well, and sought stimulus so little, that when the latter came I almost felt it a disturbance, and rather still wished it had held aloof.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
I believe in some blending of hope and sunshine sweetening the worst lots. I believe that this life is not all neither the beginning nor the end. I believe while I tremble I trust while I weep.

Charlotte Bronte
Image
I can live alone, if self-respect, and circumstances require me so to do. I need not sell my soul to buy bliss. I have an inward treasure born with me, which can keep me alive if all extraneous delights should be withheld, or offered only at a price I cannot afford to give.

Charlotte Bronte
Image
I sat down and tried to rest. I could not though I had been on foot all day, I could not now repose an instant I was too much excited.

The word book acted as a transient stimulus
Charlotte Bronte
Image
A waft of wind came sweeping down the laurel-walk, and trembled through the boughs of the chestnut: it wandered away-away-to an indefinite distance-it died. The nightingale's song was then the only voice of the hour: in listening to it, I again wept.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
If he does go, the change will be doleful. Suppose he should be absent spring, summer, and autumn: how joyless sunshine and fine days will seem!
Charlotte Bronte
Image
All my heart is yours, sir: it belongs to you and with you it would remain, were fate to exile the rest of me from your presence forever.

Oft a little morning rain Foretells a pleasant day.

You, sir, are the most phantom-like of all you are a mere dream
Charlotte Bronte
Image
A beauty neither of fine colour nor long eyelash, nor pencilled brow, but of meaning, of movement, of radiance.

Image
Something of vengeance I had tasted for the first time as aromatic wine it seemed, on swallowing, warm and racy: its after-flavour, metallic and corroding, gave me a sensation as if I had been poisoned.

There is, in lovers, a certain infatuation of egotism they will have a witness of their happiness, cost that witness what it may.
