I know enough of the world now to have almost lost the capacity of being much surprised by anything  (Charles Dickens Quotes) A heart well worth winning, and well won. A heart that, once won, goes through fire and water for the winner, and never changes, and is never daunted  (Charles Dickens Quotes) The broken heart. You think you will die, but you just keep living, day after day after terrible day  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Have you ever had the sensation of looking at someone for the first time and ever so quickly the past and future seem to fuse? Does that not mean something? That we felt so much, so deeply, before even speaking?  (Charles Dickens Quotes) In a utilitarian age, of all other times, it is a matter of grave importance that fairy tales should be respected  (Charles Dickens Quotes) The clouds were drifting over the moon at their giddiest speed, at one time wholly obscuring her, at another, suffering her to burst forth in full splendor and shed her light on all the objects around; anon, driving over her again, with increased velocity, and shrouding everything in darkness  (Charles Dickens Quotes) And could I look upon her without compassion, seeing her punishment in the ruin she was, in her profound unfitness for this earth on which she was placed, in the vanity of sorrow which had become a master mania, like the vanity of penitence, the vanity of remorse, the vanity of unworthiness, and other monstrous vanities that have been curses in this world?  (Charles Dickens Quotes) She was the most wonderful woman for prowling about the house. How she got from one story to another was a mystery beyond solution. A lady so decorous in herself, and so highly connected, was not to be suspected of dropping over the banisters or sliding down them, yet her extraordinary facility of locomotion suggested the wild idea  (Charles Dickens Quotes) She forgot to be shy at the moment, in honestly warning him away from the sunken wreck he had a dream of raising; and looked at him with eyes which assuredly, in association with her patient face, her fragile figure, her spare dress, and the wind and rain, did not turn him from his purpose of helping her  (Charles Dickens Quotes) I see that I hold a sanctuary in their hearts, and in the hearts of their descendants, generations hence. I see her, an old woman, weeping for me on the anniversary of this day. I see her and her husband, their course done, lying side by side in their last earthly bed, and I know that each was not more honoured and held sacred in the other’s soul, than I was in the souls of both  (Charles Dickens Quotes) ... the woman who grows up with the idea that she is simply to be an amiable animal, to be caressed and coaxed, is invariably a bitterly disappointed woman. A game of chess will cure such a conceit forever. The woman that knows the most, thinks the most, feels the most, is the most. Intellectual affection is the only lasting love. Love that has a game of chess in it can checkmate any man and solve the problem of life  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Your sex have such a surprising animosity against one another when you do differ  (Charles Dickens Quotes) The man who knows only one subject is almost as tiresome as the man who knows no subject  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Heaven knows we need never be ashamed of our tears, for they are rain upon the blinding dust of Earth, overlying our hard hearts  (Charles Dickens Quotes) It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade  (Charles Dickens Quotes) The flowers that sleep by night, opened their gentle eyes and turned them to the day. The light, creation's mind, was everywhere, and all things owned its power  (Charles Dickens Quotes) O let us love our occupations, bless the squire and his relations, live upon our daily rations, and always know our proper stations  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Mr. Chadband is a large yellow man, with a fat smile, and a general appearance of having a good deal of train oil in his system  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Whether I shall turn out to be the hero of my own life, or whether that station will be held by anybody else, these pages must show  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Ride on! Rough shod if need be, smooth shod if that will do, but ride on! Ride on over all obstacles, and win the race!  (Charles Dickens Quotes) I feel an earnest and humble desire, and shall till I die, to increase the stock of harmless cheerfulness  (Charles Dickens Quotes) What is peace? Is it war? No. Is it strife? No. Is it lovely, and gentle, and beautiful, and pleasant, and serene, and joyful? O yes!  (Charles Dickens Quotes) I am a demd villain!... I will fill my pockets with change for a sovereign in half - pence and drown myself in the Thames... Who for her sake will become a demd, damp, moist, unpleasant body!  (Charles Dickens Quotes) In the destroyer's steps there spring up bright creations that defy his power and his dark path becomes a way of light to heaven  (Charles Dickens Quotes) The plain rule is to do nothing in the dark, to be a party to nothing underhanded or mysterious, and never to put his foot where he cannot see the ground  (Charles Dickens Quotes) To bring deserving things down by setting undeserving things up is one of its perverted delights; and there is no playing fast and loose with the truth, in any game, without growing the worse for it  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Anything for the quick life, as the man said when he took the situation at the lighthouse  (Charles Dickens Quotes) Crush humanity out of shape once more, under similar hammers, and it will twist itself into the same tortured forms. Sow the same seeds of rapacious licence and oppression over again, and it will surely yield the same fruit according to its kind  (Charles Dickens Quotes) A man is lucky if he is the first love of a woman. A woman is lucky if she is the last love of a man  (Charles Dickens Quotes) My heart is set, as firmly as ever heart of man was set on woman. I have no thought, no view, no hope, in life beyond her; and if you oppose me in this great stake, you take my peace and happiness in your hands, and cast them to the wind  (Charles Dickens Quotes)
