Charlotte Bronte Quotes

I am not your dear; I cannot lie down: send me to school soon, Mrs. Reed, for I hate to live here Picture Quote #1

I doubt if I have made the best use of all my calamities. Soft, amiable natures they would have refined to saintliness; of strong, evil spirits they would have made demons; as for me, I have only been a woe-struck and selfish woman Picture Quote #1

Jane, my little darling (so I will call you, for so you are), you don’t know what you are talking about; you misjudge me again: it is not because she is mad I hate her. If you were mad, do you think I should hate you? Picture Quote #1

I was actually permitting myself to experience a sickening sense of disappointment: but rallying my wits, and recollecting my principles, I at once called my sensations to order; and it was wonderful how I got over the temporary blunder-how I cleared up the mistake of supposing Mr. Rochester’s movements a matter in which I had any cause to take vital interest Picture Quote #1

The soul, fortunately, has an interpreter - often an unconscious, but still a truthful interpreter - in the eye Picture Quote #1

Of an artistic temperament, I deny that I am; yet I must possess something of the artist’s faculty of making the most of present pleasure Picture Quote #1

When his first-born was put into his arms, he could see that the boy had inherited his own eyes, as they once were - large, brilliant, and black Picture Quote #1

Laws and principles are not for the times when there is no temptation: they are for such moments as this, when body and soul rise in mutiny against their rigour ... If at my convenience I might break them, what would be their worth? Picture Quote #1

I will keep the law given by God; sanctioned by man. Laws and principles are not for the times when there is no temptation: they are for such moments as this, when body and soul rise in mutiny against their rigour; stringent are they; inviolate they shall be. If at my individual convenience I might break them, what would be their worth? Picture Quote #1

Human beings never enjoy complete happiness in this world. I was not born for a different destiny to the rest of my species: to imagine such a lot befalling me is a fairy tale -- a daydream. Which I can and will realise. I shall begin today Picture Quote #1

Little things recall us to earth. The clock struck in the hall; that sufficed. I turned from the moon and the stars, opened a side door, and went in Picture Quote #1

Men judge us by the success of our efforts. God looks at the efforts themselves Picture Quote #1

. . . they would neither hate nor envy us if they did not deem us so much happier than themselves Picture Quote #1

As far as my experience of matrimony goes -- I think it tends to draw you out of, and away from yourself Picture Quote #1

The spring which moved my energies lay far away beyond seas, in an Indian isle Picture Quote #1
