Do we wonder if they live alone, or if there is a mother at home or a sister or a husband? — Roald Dahl

Matilda School Quotes By Anne Bronte

The next visit I paid to Nancy Brown was in the second week in March: for, though I had many spare minutes during the day, I seldom could look upon an hour as entirely my own; since, when everything was left to the caprices of Miss Matilda and her sister, there could be no order or regularity.

Climax of horror! actually waiting for their governess!!! — Anne Bronte
