Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy
You could sometimes see her twelfth year in her cheeks, or her ninth sparkling from her eyes and even her fifth would flit over the curves of her mouth now and then.
Thomas Hardy
She was of the stuff of which great men's mothers are made. She was indispensable to high generation, hated at tea parties, feared in shops, and loved at crises.
Thomas Hardy
We colour and mould according to the wants within us whatever our eyes bring in.
Thomas Hardy
If a path to the better there be, it begins with a full look at the worst.
Thomas Hardy
