"It is no worse, because I write..." - Quote by Charles Dickens

“I will die here where I have walked. And I will walk here, though I am in my grave. I will walk here until the pride of this house is humbled.”

“Mystery and disappointment are not absolutely indispensable to the growth of love, but they are, very often, its powerful auxiliaries.”

“... The sun does not shine upon this fair earth to meet frowning eyes, depend upon it.”

“Suffering is necessary until you realize it is unnecessary.”

“I don't expect to be understood at all.”

“A sapling must be hedged about for protection, but when it becomes a tree, a hedge would be a hindrance. So there is no need to criticise and condemn the old forms.”

“Failing is an event, not a person. Yesterday ended last night.”

“How sweet to remember the trouble that is past.”

“The past is a place you can learn from, not a place you want to live.”
