George Eliot Quotes
All These Crushing Questions; But Whatever Else Remained The Same, The Light Had Changed, And You Cannot Find The Pearly Dawn At Noonday. The Fact Is Unalterable, That A Fellow-mortal With Whose Nature You Are Acquainted Solely Through The Brief Entrances And Exits Of A Few Imaginative Weeks Called Courtship, May, When Seen In The Continuity Of Married Companionship, Be Disclosed As Something Better Or Worse Than What You Have Preconceived, But Will Certainly Not Appear Altogether The Same. And It Would Be Astonishing To Find How Soon The Change Is Felt If We Had No Kindred Changes To Compare With It. To Share Lodgings With A Brilliant Dinner Companion, Or To See Your Favourite Politician In The Ministry, May Bring About Changes Quite As Rapid: In These Cases Too We Begin By Knowing Little And Believing Much, And We Sometimes End By Inverting The Quantities.
