George Eliot Quotes

I Had A Terror Of The World. None Knew Me; All Would Mistake Me. I Had Seen So Many In My Life Who Made Themselves Glad With Scorning, And Laughed At Another's Shame. What Could I Do? This Life Seemed To Be Closing In Upon Me With A Wall Of Fire - Everywhere There Was Scorching That Made Me Shrink. The High Sunlight Made Me Shrink. And I Began To Think That My Despair Was The Voice Of God Telling Me To Die.
