More quotes by 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
To see and know the worst is to take from Fear her main advantage.
Charlotte Bronte
And with that answer, he left me. I would much rather he had knocked me down.
Charlotte Bronte
Tact, if it be genuine, never sleeps.
Charlotte Bronte
The writer who possesses the creative gift owns something of which he is not always master - something that, at times, strangely wills and works for itself.
Charlotte Bronte
Propensities and principles must be reconciled by some means.
Charlotte Bronte
At heart, he could not abide sense in women: he liked to see them as silly, as light-headed, as vain, as open to ridicule as possible because they were then in reality what he held them to be, and wished them to be,--inferior: toys to play with, to amuse a vacant hour and to be thrown away.
Charlotte Bronte
Self abandoned, relaxed and effortless, I seemed to have laid me down in the dried-up bed of a great river I heard a flood loosened in remote mountains, I felt the torrent come to rise I had no will, to flee I had no strength.
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
If he were insane, however, his was a very cool and collected insanity.
Charlotte Bronte
Writers cannot choose their own mood: with them it is not always hide-tide, nor --thank Heaven!--always Storm.
Charlotte Bronte
Strange that grief should now almost choke me, because another human being's eye has failed to greet mine.
Charlotte Bronte
Do you like him much? I told you I liked him a little. Where is the use of caring for him so very much: he is full of faults. Is he? All boys are. More than girls? Very likely.
Charlotte Bronte
Would you not be happier if you tried to forget her severity, together with the passionate emotions it excited? Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity, or registering wrongs.
Charlotte Bronte
What necessity is there to dwell on the Past, when the Present is so much surer-the Future so much brighter?
Charlotte Bronte
You mocking changeling- fairy-born and human-bred!
Charlotte Bronte
The practice of hinting by single letters those expletives with which profane and violent persons are wont to garnish their discourse, strikes me as a proceeding which, however, well meant, is weak and futile. I cannot tell what good it does - what feeling it spares - what horror it conceals.
Charlotte Bronte
Oft a little morning rain Foretells a pleasant day.
Charlotte Bronte
I believe while I tremble I trust while I weep.
Charlotte Bronte
Mr. Rochester, I no more assign this fate to you than I grasp at it for myself. We were born to strive and endure - you as well as I: do so. You will forget me before I forget you.
