Charles Dickens Quotes

And Now, As I Close My Task, Subduing My Desire To Linger Yet, These Faces Fade Away. But One Face, Shining On Me Like A Heavenly Light By Which I See All Other Objects, Is Above Them And Beyond Them All. And That Remains.
I Turn My Head, And See It, In Its Beautiful Serenity, Beside Me.
My Lamp Burns Low, And I Have Written Far Into The Night; But The Dear Presence, Without Which I Were Nothing, Bears Me Company.
O Agnes, O My Soul, So May Thy Face Be By Me When I Close My Life Indeed; So May I, When Realities Are Melting From Me, Like The Shadows Which I Now Dismiss, Still Find Thee Near Me, Pointing Upward!
