More quotes by Thomas Hardy
My wicked heart will ramble on in spite of myself. (Arabella)
Thomas Hardy
There are accents in the eye which are not on the tongue, and more tales come from pale lips than can enter an ear. It is both the grandeur and the pain of the remoter moods that they avoid the pathway of sound.
Thomas Hardy
Beauty lay not in the thing, but in what the thing symbolized.
Thomas Hardy
Always wanting another man than your own.
Thomas Hardy
So each had a private little sun for her soul to bask in some dream, some affection, some hobby, or at least some remote and distant hope.
Thomas Hardy
Women accept their destiny more readily than men.
Thomas Hardy
Of course poets have morals and manners of their own, and custom is no argument with them.
Thomas Hardy
Love is a possible strength in an actual weakness.
Thomas Hardy
Somebody might have come along that way who would have asked him his trouble, and might have cheered him by saying that his notions were further advanced than those of his grammarian. But nobody did come, because nobody does and under the crushing recognition of his gigantic error Jude continued to wish himself out of the world.
Thomas Hardy
War makes rattling good history.
Thomas Hardy
Tis because we be on a blighted star, and not a sound one, isn't it Tess?
Thomas Hardy
Black chaos comes, and the fettered gods of the earth say, Let there be light.
Thomas Hardy
There is always an inertia to be overcome in striking out a new line of conduct – not more in ourselves, it seems, than in circumscribing events, which appear as if leagued together to allow no novelties in the way of amelioration.
Thomas Hardy
Where we are would be Paradise to me, if you would only make it so.
Thomas Hardy
It may have been observed that there is no regular path for getting out of love as there is for getting in. Some people look upon marriage as a short cut that way, but it has been known to fail.
Thomas Hardy
It was terribly beautiful to Tess today, for since her eyes last fell upon it she had learnt that the serpent hisses where the sweet birds sing.
Thomas Hardy
Well, these sad and hopeless obstacles are welcome in one sense, for they enable us to look with indifference upon the cruel satires that Fate loves to indulge in.
Thomas Hardy
Do not do an immoral thing for moral reasons.
Thomas Hardy
Sometimes I shrink from your knowing what I have felt for you, and sometimes I am distressed that all of it you will never know.
Thomas Hardy
We learn that it is not the rays which bodies absorb, but those which they reject, that give them the colours they are known by and in the same way people are specialized by their dislikes and antagonisms, whilst their goodwill is looked upon as no attribute at all.
Thomas Hardy
