Sometimes it really hits me how well gender roles are critiqued in this book. The young women stop seeking freedom because everyone encourages them to be quiet, to behave, to stay inside. They become unhappy, attention-seeking, desperate. Everyone fears cathy will be like Catherine, while treating her with the same carelessness. She was a “happy creature” as a youth but “could not be content.”

“Mr. Heathcliff, you have nobody to love you; and, however miserable you make us, we shall still have the revenge of thinking that your cruelty arises from your greater misery! You are miserable, are you not? Lonely, like the devil, and envious like him? Nobody loves you—nobody will cry for you, when you die! I wouldn’t be you!”

I like catherine (the younger). She’s intelligent and I wonder if she’ll figure out how to manipulate heathcliff.

“She stopped, and wept outright; upset at the bare notion of relationship with such a clown” the amount of relatable quotes in this book…

“I’ve recovered from my first desire to be killed by him. I’d rather he killed himself!”

I see now why this is compelling. Two horrible insane people whose love is beautiful.
