Charlotte Bronte
Dread remorse when you are tempted to err, Miss Eyre remorse is the poison of life.
Charlotte Bronte
Flirting is a woman’s trade, one must keep in practice.
Charlotte Bronte
I like to see flowers growing, but when they are gathered, they cease to please. I look on them as things rootless and perishable their likeness to life makes me sad. I never offer flowers to those I love I never wish to receive them from hands dear to me.
Charlotte Bronte
I only want an easy mind, sir not crushed by crowded obligations.
Charlotte Bronte
Adversity is a good school.
Charlotte Bronte
Of late years an abundant shower of curates has fallen upon the North of England.
Charlotte Bronte
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.
