The shadows are as important as the light.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
Better to be without logic than without feeling.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
Gentle reader, may you never feel what I then felt! May your eyes never shed such stormy, scalding, heart-wrung tears as poured from mine. May you never appeal to Heaven in prayers so hopeless and so agised as in that hour left my lips: for never may you, like me, dread to be the instrument of evil to what you wholly love.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
On the contrary, I'm a universal patriot, if you could understand me rightly: my country is the world.
Charlotte Bronte

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

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?
Charlotte Bronte
Image
You have rather the look of another world. I marvelled where you had got that sort of face.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
Writers cannot choose their own mood: with them it is not always hide-tide, nor --thank Heaven!--always Storm.
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
Is there not a terrible hollowness, mockery, want, craving, in that existence which is given away to others, for want of something of your own to bestow it on?
Charlotte Bronte
Image
And with that answer, he left me. I would much rather he had knocked me down.
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
As far as my experience of matrimony goes -- I think it tends to draw you out of, and away from yourself.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
I am not an angel, I asserted and I will not be one till I die: I will be myself.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
Do you like him much? I told you I liked him a little. Where is the use of caring for him so very much: he is full of faults. Is he? All boys are. More than girls? Very likely.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
To talk to each other is but a more animated and an audible thinking.
Charlotte Bronte
Image
Reader, I literally married him.

What the deuce is to do now?
Charlotte Bronte
Image
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
Image
There's no use in weeping, Though we are condemned to part: There's such a thing as keeping, A remembrance in one's heart.
