Youth has its romance, and maturity its wisdom, as morning and spring have their freshness, noon and summer their power, night and winter their repose. Each attribute is good in its own season.

More quotes by Charlotte Bronte
Fair as a lily, and not only the pride of life, but the desire of his eyes
Charlotte Bronte
The human and fallible should not arrogate a power with which the divine and perfect alone can be safely intrusted.
Charlotte Bronte
I can so clearly distinguish between the criminal and his crime I can so sincerely forgive the first while I abhor the last.
Charlotte Bronte
Thank you, Mr. Rochester, for your great kindness. I am strangely glad to get back again to you: and wherever you are is my home—my only home.
Charlotte Bronte
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
I wished critics would judge me as an author, not as a woman.
Charlotte Bronte
We should acknowledge God merciful, but not always for us comprehensible.
Charlotte Bronte
Would you not be happier if you tried to forget her severity, together with the passionate emotions it excited? Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity, or registering wrongs.
Charlotte Bronte
Let your performance do the thinking.
Charlotte Bronte
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.
Charlotte Bronte
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.
Charlotte Bronte
A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow.
Charlotte Bronte
After a youth and manhood passed half in unutterable misery and half in dreary solitude, I have for the first time found what I can truly love--I have found you.
Charlotte Bronte
If he does go, the change will be doleful. Suppose he should be absent spring, summer, and autumn: how joyless sunshine and fine days will seem!
Charlotte Bronte
Jane Austin was a complete and most sensible lady, but a very incomplete and rather insensible (not senseless) woman. If this is heresy, I cannot help it.
Charlotte Bronte
Conventionality is not morality. Self-righteousness is not religion. To attack the first is not to assail the last.
Charlotte Bronte
I am not an angel, I asserted and I will not be one till I die: I will be myself.
Charlotte Bronte
If life be a war, it seemed my destiny to conduct it single-handed.
Charlotte Bronte
It is a long way off, sir From what Jane? From England and from Thornfield: and ___ Well? From you, sir
Charlotte Bronte
The ease of his manner freed me from painful restraint the friendly frankness, as correct as cordial, with which he treated me, drew me to him
