"We were equals afterwards, as we had..." - Quote by Charles Dickens

“Marley was dead: to begin with.”

“And yet I love him. I love him so much and so dearly, that when I sometimes think my life may be but a weary one, I am proud of it and glad of it. I am proud and glad to suffer something for him, even though it is of no service to him, and he will never know of it or care for it.”

“Listlessness to everything, but brooding sorrow, was the night that fell on my undisciplined heart. Let me look up from it - as at last I did, thank Heaven! - and from its long, sad, wretched dream, to dawn.”

“A respect for the rights of other peoples to determine their forms of government and their economy will not weaken our democracy. It will inevitably strengthen it.”

“Men are respectable only as they respect.”

“Let a man behave in his own house as a guest.”

“There is not love where there is no will.”

“You don't have to destroy me. Do you?”

“It's a big error to think that because you like somebody's work, you're going to like him.”
