Charlotte Bronte Quotes
To Pass Its Threshold Was To Return To Stagnation; To Cross The Silent Hall, To Ascend The Darksome Staircase, To Seek My Own Lonely Little Room, And Then To Meet Tranquil Mrs. Fairfax, And Spend The Long Winter Evening With Her, And Her Only, Was To Quell Wholly The Faint Excitement Wakened By My Walk, - To Slip Again Over My Faculties The Viewless Fetters Of An Uniform And Too Still Existence; Of An Existence Whose Very Privileges Of Security And Ease I Was Becoming Incapable Of Appreciating. What Good It Would Have Done Me At That Time To Have Been Tossed In The Storms Of An Uncertain Struggling Life, And To Have Been Taught By Rough And Bitter Experience To Long For The Calm Amidst Which I Now Repined! Yes, Just As Much Good As It Would Do A Man Tired Of Sitting Still In A "too Easy Chair" To Take A Long Walk: And Just As Natural Was The Wish To Stir, Under My Circumstances, As It Would Be Under His.
