"Nothing that we do, is done in..." - Quote by Charles Dickens

“Now, Bella suspected by this time that Mr. Rokesmith admired her. Whether the knowledge (for it was rather that than suspicion) caused her to incline to him a little more, or a little less, than she had done at first; whether it rendered her eager to find out more about him, because she sought to establish reason for her distrust, or because she sought to free him from it; was as yet dark to her own heart. But at most times he occupied a great amount of her attention.”

“Try not to associate bodily defect with mental, my good friend, except for a solid reason”

“Ah, if only I had brought a cigar with me! This would haveestablished my identity.”

“The reason of idleness and of crime is the deferring of our hopes. Whilst we are waiting, we beguile the time with jokes, with sleep, with eating, and with crimes.”

“When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place.”

“Well, you know how it feels if you begin hoping for something that you want desperately badly; you almost fight against the hope because it is too good to be true; you've been disappointed so often before.”

“Getting knocked down in life is a given. Getting up and moving forward is a choice.”

“If you neglect to recharge a battery, it dies. And if you run full speed ahead without stopping for water, you lose momentum to finish the race.”

“Because a thing seems difficult for you, do not think it impossible for anyone to accomplish.”
