Additional quotes by Anne Brontë

Don't you know that every time we meet the thoughts of the final parting will become more painful? Don't you feel that every interview makes us dearer to each other than the last?

How sweet to feel its helpless form Depending thus on me alone! And while I hold it safe and warm What bliss to think it is my own! To feel my hand so kindly prest, To know myself beloved at last, To think my heart has found a rest, My life of solitude is past!

If you would really study my pleasure, mother, you must consider your own comfort and convenience a little more than you do.

On all her breezes borne Earth yields no scents like those; But he, that dares not grasp the thorn Should never crave the rose. - Anne Brontë
