He shall never know how I love him: and that, not because he's handsome, Nelly, but because he is more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.
Emily Bronte
Image
He had the hypocrisy to represent a mourner: and previous to following with Hareton, he lifted the unfortunate child on to the table and muttered, with peculiar gusto, 'Now, my bonny lad, you are mine! And we'll see if one tree won't grow as crooked as another, with the same wind to twist it!

Terror made me cruel.
Emily Bronte
Image
Proud people breed sad sorrows for themselves. But if you be afraid of your touchiness, you must ask pardon, mind, when she comes in.
Emily Bronte
Image
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
Image
No coward soul is mine.
Emily Bronte
Image
Sweet Love of youth, forgive, if I forget thee, While the world's tide is bearing me along Sterner desires and darker hopes beset me, Hopes which obscure, but cannot do thee wrong.
Emily Bronte
Image
I have to remind myself to breathe -- almost to remind my heart to beat!
Emily Bronte
Image
A good heart will help you to a bonny face, my lad and a bad one will turn the bonniest into something worse than ugly.
Emily Bronte
Image
He turned, as he spoke, a peculiar look in her direction, a look of hatred unless he has a most perverse set of facial muscles that will not, like those of other people, interpret the language of his soul.
Emily Bronte
Image
It was not the thorn bending to the honeysuckles, but the honeysuckles embracing the thorn.
Emily Bronte
Image
I'll be as dirty as I please, and I like to be dirty, and I will be dirty!
Emily Bronte
Image
I understand that most ladies tend to prefer lap dogs.... Perhaps I am an exception.
Emily Bronte
Image
But there's this one difference: one is gold put to the use of paving-stones, and the other is tin polished to ape a service of silver. Mine has nothing valuable about it yet I shall have the merit of making it go as far as such poor stuff can go. His had first-rate qualities, and they are lost, rendered worst than unavailing.
Emily Bronte
Image
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
Image
The winter wind is loud and wild, Come close to me, my darling child Forsake thy books, and mate less play And, while the night is gathering grey, We'll talk its pensive hours away.
