Charlotte Bronte Quotes

Much I Marvelled At The Sagacity Evinced By Waiters And Chamber-maids In Proportioning The Accommodation To The Guest. How Could Inn-servants And Ship-stewardesses Everywhere Tell At A Glance That I, For Instance, Was An Individual Of No Social Significance, And Little Burdened By Cash? They Did Know It Evidently: I Saw Quite Well That They All, In A Moment's Calculation, Estimated Me At About The Same Fractional Value. The Fact Seemed To Me Curious And Pregnant: I Would Not Disguise From Myself What It Indicated, Yet Managed To Keep Up My Spirits Pretty Well Under Its Pressure.
Having At Last Landed In A Great Hall, Full Of Skylight Glare, I Made My Way Somehow To What Proved To Be The Coffee Room.It Cannot Be Denied That On Entering This Room I Trembled Somewhat; Felt Uncertain, Solitary, Wretched; Wished To Heaven I Knew Whether I Was Doing Right Or Wrong; Felt Convinced That It Was The Last, But Could Not Help Myself.
