Emily Bronte

Honest people don't hide their deeds.

Proud people breed sad sorrows for themselves.

Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.

Any relic of the dead is precious, if they were valued living.

I cannot express it: but surely you and everybody have a notion that there is, or should be, an existence of yours beyond you.

I have dreamed in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind.

I am now quite cured of seeking pleasure in society, be it country or town. A sensible man ought to find sufficient company in himself.

Love is like the wild rose-briar; Friendship like the holly-tree. The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms, but which will bloom most constantly?

I see heaven's glories shine and faith shines equal.

I'll walk where my own nature would be leading: It vexes me to choose another guide.

A person who has not done one half his day's work by ten o clock, runs a chance of leaving the other half undone.
