More quotes by Charlotte Bronte
You had no right to be born for you make no use of life. Instead of living for, in, and with yourself, as a reasonable being ought, you seek only to fasten your feebleness on some other person's strength.
Charlotte Bronte
My future husband was becoming to me my whole world and more than the world: almost my hope of heaven. He stood between me and every thought of religion, as an eclipse intervenes between man and the broad sun. I could not, in those days, see God for His creature: of whom I had made an idol.
Charlotte Bronte
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
Too often do reviewers remind us of the mob of Astrologers, Chaldeans, and Soothsayers gathered before 'the writing on the wall' and unable to read the characters or make known the interpretation.
Charlotte Bronte
The word book acted as a transient stimulus
Charlotte Bronte
You have introduced a topic on which our natures are at variance - a topic we should never discuss: the very name of love is an apple of discord between us. If the reality were required, what should we do? How should we feel? My dear cousin, abandon your scheme of marriage - forget it.
Charlotte Bronte
The cool peace and dewy sweetness of the night filled me with a mood of hope: not hope on any definite point, but a general sense of encouragement and heart-ease.
Charlotte Bronte
I don't wish to treat you like an inferior: that is (correcting himself), I claim only such superiority as must result from twenty years' difference in age and a century's advance in experience.
Charlotte Bronte
We should acknowledge God merciful, but not always for us comprehensible.
Charlotte Bronte
I can be on guard against my enemies, but God deliver me from my friends!
Charlotte Bronte
That a greater fool than Jane Eyre had never breathed the breath of life that a more fantastic idiot had never surfeited herself on sweet lies, and swallowed poison as if it were nectar.
Charlotte Bronte
The man of regular life and rational mind never despairs.
Charlotte Bronte
It would not be wicked to love me. It would to obey you.
Charlotte Bronte
Friends always forget those whom fortune forsakes.
Charlotte Bronte
There is, I am convinced, no picture that conveys in all its dreadfulness, a vision of sorrow, despairing, remediless, supreme. If I could paint such a picture, the canvas would show only a woman looking down at her empty arms.
Charlotte Bronte
Liberty lends us her wings and Hope guides us by her star.
Charlotte Bronte
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. A phase of my life was closing tonight, a new one opening tomorrow: impossible to slumber in the interval I must watch feverishly while the change was being accomplished.
Charlotte Bronte
It is not violence that best overcomes hate -- nor vengeance that most certainly heals injury.
Charlotte Bronte
Make my happiness--I will make yours.
Charlotte Bronte
You ask rather too many questions. I have given you answers enough for the present: now I want to read.
