More quotes by 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 vehemence of emotion, stirred by grief and love within me, was claiming mastery, and struggling for full sway and asserting a right to predominate: to overcome, to live, rise, and reign at last yes,--and to speak.
Charlotte Bronte
His mind was indeed my library, and whenever it was opened to me, I entered bliss.
Charlotte Bronte
I believe while I tremble I trust while I weep.
Charlotte Bronte
Adversity is a good school.
Charlotte Bronte
Tact, if it be genuine, never sleeps.
Charlotte Bronte
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
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 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
Neither birth nor sex forms a limit to genius.
Charlotte Bronte
I longed for a power of vision which might overpass that limit which might reach the busy world, towns, regions full of life I had heard of but never seen: that I desired more of practical experience than I possessed more of intercourse with my kind, of acquaintance with variety of character, than was here within my reach.
Charlotte Bronte
Reserved people often really need the frank discussion of their sentiments and griefs more than the expansive.
Charlotte Bronte
What the deuce is to do now?
Charlotte Bronte
As far as my experience of matrimony goes -- I think it tends to draw you out of, and away from yourself.
Charlotte Bronte
Give him enough rope and he will hang himself.
Charlotte Bronte
You are afraid of me, because I talk like a sphinx.
Charlotte Bronte
Daydreams are the delusions of the devil.
Charlotte Bronte
A depressing and difficult passage has prefaced every page I have turned in life.
Charlotte Bronte
When you are inquisitive, Jane, you always make me smile. You open your eyes like an eager bird, and make every now and then a restless movement, as if answers in speech did not flow fast enough for you, and you wanted to read the tablet of one's heart.
Charlotte Bronte
On the contrary, I'm a universal patriot, if you could understand me rightly: my country is the world.
