  Quotations

  • Life is so constructed that the event does not, cannot, will not, match the expectation. (Charlotte)
  • Men judge us by the success of our efforts. God looks at the efforts themselves. (Charlotte)
  • Love is like the wild-rose briar; friendship is like the holly-tree. The holly is dark when the rose briar blooms. But which will bloom most constantly? (Emily)
  • But he that dares not grasp the thorn should never crave the rose. (Anne)
