They will both be happy, and I do not grudge them their bliss but I groan under my own misery: some of my suffering is very acute. Truly, I ought not to have been born: they should have smothered me at first cry.
Charlotte Bronte
I can be on guard against my enemies, but God deliver me from my friends!
Charlotte Bronte
There is no happiness like that of being loved by your fellow creatures, and feeling that your presence is an addition to their comfort.
Charlotte Bronte
He is not to them what he is to me.
Charlotte Bronte
The eagerness of a listener quickens the tongue of a narrator.
Charlotte Bronte
I believe that creature is a changeling: she is a perfect cabinet of oddities.
