More quotes by Charlotte Bronte
I like this day I like that sky of steel I like the sternness and stillness of the world under this frost.
Charlotte Bronte
There is no happiness like that of being loved by your fellow creatures, and feeling that your presence is an addition to their comfort.
Charlotte Bronte
As far as my experience of matrimony goes -- I think it tends to draw you out of, and away from yourself.
Charlotte Bronte
I wished critics would judge me as an author, not as a woman.
Charlotte Bronte
Tact, if it be genuine, never sleeps.
Charlotte Bronte
... and she held out a pretty gold ring. 'Put it,' she said, 'on the fourth finger of my left hand, and I am yours and you are mine and we shall leave Earth and make our own Heaven yonder.'
Charlotte Bronte
I knew you would do me good in some way, at some time--I saw it in your eyes when I first beheld you.
Charlotte Bronte
Strange that grief should now almost choke me, because another human being's eye has failed to greet mine.
Charlotte Bronte
I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal--as we are!
Charlotte Bronte
I have a strange feeling with regard to you. As if I had a string somewhere under my left ribs, tightly knotted to a similar string in you. And if you were to leave I'm afraid that cord of communion would snap. And I have a notion that I'd take to bleeding inwardly. As for you, you'd forget me.
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 care for myself. The more solitary, the more friendless, the more unsustained I am, the more I will respect myself.
Charlotte Bronte
Neither birth nor sex forms a limit to genius.
Charlotte Bronte
The shadows are as important as the light.
Charlotte Bronte
While I loved, and while I was loved, what an existence I enjoyed!
Charlotte Bronte
I believe in some blending of hope and sunshine sweetening the worst lots. I believe that this life is not all neither the beginning nor the end. I believe while I tremble I trust while I weep.
Charlotte Bronte
I can but die... and I believe in God. Let me try and wait His will in silence.
Charlotte Bronte
Better to be without logic than without feeling.
Charlotte Bronte
Reserved people often really need the frank discussion of their sentiments and griefs more than the expansive.
Charlotte Bronte
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.
