Charlotte Bronte
I like the spirit of this great London which I feel around me. Who but a coward would pass his whole life in hamlets and for ever abandon his faculties to the eating rust of obscurity?
Charlotte Bronte
Tact, if it be genuine, never sleeps.
Charlotte Bronte
I have not broken your heart - you have broken it and in breaking it, you have broken mine.
Charlotte Bronte
Neither birth nor sex forms a limit to genius.
Charlotte Bronte
I grant an ugly woman is a blot on the fair face of creation but as to the gentleman, let them be solicitous to possess only strength and valour: let their motto be:Hunt, shoot, and fight: the rest is not worth a flip.
Charlotte Bronte
He is not to them what he is to me.
