Quotes

The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed; The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed. Charlotte Bronte
I hold another creed, which no one ever taught me, and which I seldom mention, but in which I delight, and to which I cling, for it extends hope to all; it makes eternity a rest - a mighty home, not a terror and an abyss. Besides, with this creed, I can so clearly distinguish between the criminal and his crime; I can so sincerely forgive the first while I abhor the last; with this creed, revenge never worries my heart, degradation never too deeply disgusts me, injustice never crushes me too... Charlotte Bronte
My future husband was becoming to me my whole world; and more than the world: almost my hope of heaven.

Sense would resist delirium; judgment would warn passion Charlotte Bronte

Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars--a cage, so peril, loneliness, an uncertain future, are not oppressive evils, so long as the frame is healthy and the faculties are employed; so long, especially, as Liberty lends us her wings, and Hope guides us by her star. Charlotte Bronte
Peril, loneliness, an uncertain future, are not oppressive evils, so long as the frame is healthy and the faculties are employed; so long, especially, as Liberty lends us her wings, and Hope guides us by her star. Charlotte Bronte
I thought of him now-in his room-watching the sunrise; hoping I should soon come to say I would stay with him and be his. I longed to be his; I panted to return; it was not too late. Charlotte Bronte
Charlotte Bronte quote: "Her coming was my hope each day, Her parting was my pain; The..."
Her coming was my hope each day, Her parting was my pain; The chance that did her steps delay. Was ice in every vein. Charlotte Bronte
Charlotte Bronte quote: "To prolong doubt was to prolong hope."
To prolong doubt was to prolong hope. Charlotte Bronte
