Sylvia Plath
“I want to taste and glory in each day, and never be afraid to experience pain; and never shut myself up in a numb core of nonfeeling, or stop questioning and criticizing life and take the easy way out. To learn and think: to think and live; to live and learn: this always, with new insight, new understanding, and new love.”
Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

Anaïs Nin
“The secret of joy is the mastery of pain.”
Anais Nin

Charlotte Brontë
“I smiled: I thought to myself Mr. Rochester is peculiar — he seems to forget that he pays me £30 per annum for receiving his orders.

"The smile is very well," said he, catching instantly the passing expression; "but speak too."

"I was thinking, sir, that very few masters would trouble themselves to inquire whether or not their paid subordinates were piqued and hurt by their orders.”
Charlotte Bronte, Jane Eyre

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Ah, Misha, he has a stormy spirit. His mind is in bondage. He is haunted by a great, unsolved doubt. He is one of those who don't want millions, but an answer to their questions.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov: A Novel in Four Parts With Epilogue

Emily Brontë
“If you ever looked at me once with what I know is in you, I would be your slave.”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights
