Crying does not indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
There is a perverse mood of the mind which is rather soothed than irritated by misconstruction and in quarters where we can never be rightly known, we take pleasure, I think, in being consummately ignored.

You never felt jealousy, did you, Miss Eyre? Of course not: I need not ask you because you never felt love. You have both sentiments yet to experience: your soul sleeps the shock is yet to be given which shall waken it.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
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.

You, sir, are the most phantom-like of all you are a mere dream

I like this day I like that sky of steel I like the sternness and stillness of the world under this frost.

Let your performance do the thinking.

Strange that grief should now almost choke me, because another human being's eye has failed to greet mine.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
My love has placed her little hand With noble faith in mine, And vowed that wedlock's sacred band Our nature shall entwine. My love has sworn, with sealing kiss, With me to live -- to die I have at last my nameless bliss: As I love -- loved am I!
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

I have no wish to talk nonsense. If you did, it would be in such a grave, quiet manner, I should mistake it for sense.

Oft a little morning rain Foretells a pleasant day.
