Nathaniel Hawthorne Quotes

Hester," Said He, "hast Thou Found Peace?" She Smiled Drearily, Looking Down Upon Her Bosom. "Hast Thou?" She Asked. "None - Nothing But Despair!" He Answered. "What Else Could I Look For, Being What I Am, And Leading Such A Life As Mine? Were I An Atheist - A Man Devoid Of Conscience - A Wretch With Coarse And Brutal Instincts - I Might Have Found Peace Long Ere Now. Nay, I Never Should Have Lost It. But, As Matters Stand With My Soul, Whatever Of Good Capacity There Originally Was In Me, All Of God's Gifts That Were The Choicest Have Become The Ministers Of Spiritual Torment. Hester, I Am Most Miserable!" "The People Reverence Thee," Said Hester.
