More quotes by Charlotte Bronte
He is not to them what he is to me.
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
One does not jump, and spring, and shout hurrah! at hearing one has got a fortune, one begins to consider responsibilities, and to ponder business on a base of steady satisfaction rise certain grave cares, and we contain ourselves, and brood over our bliss with a solemn brow.
Charlotte Bronte
I must, then, repeat continually that we are forever sundered - and yet, while I breathe and think, I must love him.' - Jane Eyre
Charlotte Bronte
It is far better to endure patiently a smart which nobody feels but yourself, than to commit a hasty action whose evil consequences will extend to all connected with you.
Charlotte Bronte
Strange that grief should now almost choke me, because another human being's eye has failed to greet mine.
Charlotte Bronte
The soul, fortunately, has an interpreter - often an unconscious, but still a truthful interpreter - in the eye.
Charlotte Bronte
I was no pope - I could not boast infallibility.
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
Oh, I am not going to die, am I? He will not separate us, we have been so happy.
Charlotte Bronte
Crying does not indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.
Charlotte Bronte
A depressing and difficult passage has prefaced every page I have turned in life.
Charlotte Bronte
And with that answer, he left me. I would much rather he had knocked me down.
Charlotte Bronte
Consistency, madam, is the first of Christian duties.
Charlotte Bronte
God waits only the separation of spirit from flesh to crown us with a full reward. Why, then, should we ever sink overwhelmed with distress, when life is so soon over, and death is so certain an entrance to happiness -- to glory?
Charlotte Bronte
The human and fallible should not arrogate a power with which the divine and perfect alone can be safely intrusted.
Charlotte Bronte
Now it is not everybody, even amongst our respected friends and esteemed acquaintance, whom we like to have near us, whom we like to watch us, to wait on us, to approach us with the proximity of a nurse to a patient. It is not every friend whose eye is a light in a sickroom, whose presence is there a solace.
Charlotte Bronte
Poverty, for me, is synonymous with degradation.
Charlotte Bronte
I am not an angel, I asserted and I will not be one till I die: I will be myself.
Charlotte Bronte
Die without me if you will. Live for me if you dare.
