More quotes by Emily Bronte
Shall Earth no more inspire thee, Thou lonely dreamer now?
Emily Bronte
He had been content with daily labour and rough animal enjoyments, 'till Catherine crossed his path. Shame at her scorn, and hope of her approval, were his first prompts to higher pursuits and, instead of guarding him from one and winning him to the other, his endeavors to raise himself had produced just the contrary result.
Emily Bronte
Look on the grave where thou must sleep Thy last, and strongest foe It is endurance not to weep, If that repose seem woe.
Emily Bronte
Though earth and man were gone, And suns and universes ceased to be, And Thou wert left alone, Every existence would exist in Thee.
Emily Bronte
If he loved with all the powers of his puny being, he couldn't love as much in eighty years as I could in a day.
Emily Bronte
By this curious turn of disposition I have gained the reputation of deliberate heartlessness how undeserved, I alone can appreciate.
Emily Bronte
I cannot express it: but surely you and everybody have a notion that there is, or should be, an existence of yours beyond you.
Emily Bronte

Emily Bronte
The old church tower and garden wall Are black with autumn rain And dreary winds foreboding call The darkness down again
Emily Bronte
How strange! I thought, though everybody hated and despised each other, they could not avoid loving me.
Emily Bronte
I have to remind myself to breathe -- almost to remind my heart to beat!
Emily Bronte
No coward soul is mine, No trembler in the world's storm-troubled sphere.
Emily Bronte
I shall smile when wreaths of snow Blossom where the rose should grow.
Emily Bronte
But you might as well bid a man struggling in the water, rest within arm's length of the shore! I must reach it first, and then I'll rest.
Emily Bronte
The tyrant grinds down his slaves and they don't turn against him, they crush those beneath them.
Emily Bronte
Heaven did not seem to be my home and I broke my heart with weeping to come back to earth and the angels were so angry that they flung me out into the middle of the heath on the top of Wuthering Heights where I woke sobbing for joy.
Emily Bronte
I despise him for himself, and hate him for the memories he revives!
Emily Bronte
If I were in heaven, Nelly, I should be extremely miserable. Because you are not fit to go there, I answered. All sinners would be miserable in heaven.
Emily Bronte
You have been compelled to cultivate your reflective faculties, for want of occasions for frittering your life away in silly trifles.
Emily Bronte
He... was attached by ties stronger than reason could break -- chains, forged by habit, which it would be cruel to attempt to loosen.
