Image
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.

Image
To see and know the worst is to take from Fear her main advantage.

Image
[O]ur honeymoon will shine our life long: its beams will only fade over your grave or mine.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
There is, I am convinced, no picture that conveys in all its dreadfulness, a vision of sorrow, despairing, remediless, supreme. If I could paint such a picture, the canvas would show only a woman looking down at her empty arms.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
It does good to no woman to be flattered [by a man] who does not intend to marry her and it is madness in all women to let a secret love kindle within them, which, if unreturned and unknown, must devour the life that feeds it and, if discovered and responded to, must lead, ignis-fatuus-like, into miry wilds whence there is no extrication.

Image
But life is a battle: may we all be enabled to fight it well!
Charlotte Bronte
Image
The negation of severe suffering was the nearest approach to happiness I expected to know. Besides, I seemed to hold two lives - the life of thought, and that of reality.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
Oh! that gentleness! how far more potent is it than force!
Charlotte Bronte
Image
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
Image
No severe or prolonged bodily illness followed this incident of the red-room: it only gave my nerves a shock, of which I feel the reverberation to this day.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
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.

Image
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.

Of late years an abundant shower of curates has fallen upon the North of England.

You can write nothing of value unless you give yourself wholly to the the theme -- and when you so give yourself -- you lose appetite ans sleep -- it cannot be helped --

Liberty lends us her wings and Hope guides us by her star.

flattery would be worse than vain there is no consolation in flattery.
