Rapidly, merrily, Life's sunny hours flit by, Gratefully, cheerily Enjoy them as they fly!

A depressing and difficult passage has prefaced every page I have turned in life.
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. What honest man on being casually taken for a housebreaker does not feel rather tickled than vexed at the mistake?

But life is a battle: may we all be enabled to fight it well!
Charlotte Bronte
Image
Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last.

Monsieur, sit down listen to me. I am not a heathen, I am not hard-hearted, I am not unchristian, I am not dangerous, as they tell you I would not trouble your faith you believe in God and Christ and the Bible, and so do I.
