Emily Bronte
Image
And, even yet, I dare not let it languish, Dare not indulge in memory's rapturous pain Once drinking deep of that divinest anguish, How could I seek the empty world again?

Emily Bronte
Image
Last night, I was on the threshold of hell. To-day, I am within sight of my heaven. I have my eyes on it: hardly three feet to sever me!
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!
Emily Bronte
Image
The clock strikes off the hollow half-hours of all the life that is left to you, one by one.
Emily Bronte

He’s more myself than I am
Emily Bronte
Image
You're hard to please: so many friends and so few cares, and can't make yourself content.
Emily Bronte
Image
The old church tower and garden wall Are black with autumn rain And dreary winds foreboding call The darkness down again
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
By this curious turn of disposition I have gained the reputation of deliberate heartlessness how undeserved, I alone can appreciate.

Honest people don't hide their deeds.
Emily Bronte
