“قال لي أحد المعزين: "آخر الأحزان ياسيدنا". ما أسخف هذه العبارة. لا هي أمنية فتتحقق و لا دعاء فيستجاب. كلما رددها أحدهم سمعها الناس هكذا:"آخر الأحزان" و سمعتها أنا هكذا:"أتمنى لك الموت عاجلاً قبل أن يصيبك الحزن التالي". من نحن بلا أحزان؟ كيف نأمن على أنفسنا بدونها ألا نتيه في أودية الغفلة مثل شياهٍ ضالة؟”

“Oh, they have robbed me of the hope. My spirit held so dear; They will not let me hear that voice My soul delights to hear.
They will not let me see that face I so delight to see; And they have taken all thy smiles. And all thy love from me.”
― Agnes Grey
They will not let me see that face I so delight to see; And they have taken all thy smiles. And all thy love from me.”

“Better to have flamed in the darkness, to have inspired others, to have lived, than to have sat in the darkness, cursing the people who borrowed, but did not return, your candle.”

“...is it likely my life all through will be so clouded? Is it not possible that God may hear my prayers, disperse these gloomy shadows, and grant me some beams of heaven’s sunshine yet? Will He entirely deny to me those blessings which are so freely given to others, who neither ask them nor acknowledge them when received? May I not still hope and trust?”
