More quotes by Thomas Hardy
Always wanting another man than your own.
Thomas Hardy
Bless thy simplicity, Tess
Thomas Hardy
A blaze of love and extinction, was better than a lantern glimmer of the same which should last long years.
Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy
Do not do an immoral thing for moral reasons.
Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy
If Galileo had said in verse that the world moved, the inquisition might have let him alone.

Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy
Some women's love of being loved is insatiable and so, often, is their love of loving and in the last case they may find that they can't give it continuously to the chamber-officer appointed by the bishop's license to receive it.
Thomas Hardy
She was but a transient impression, half forgotten.
Thomas Hardy
They spoke very little of their mutual feeling pretty phrases and warm expressions being probably unnecessary between such tried friends.
Thomas Hardy
Is a woman a thinking unit at all, or a fraction always wanting its integer?
Thomas Hardy
I am the family face flesh perishes, I live on.
Thomas Hardy
A strong woman who recklessly throws away her strength, she is worse than a weak woman who has never had any strength to throw away.
Thomas Hardy
