And now I think I have said sufficient.

The way it ended genuinely made me laugh, it's the 19th century version of saying kthxbye

What pleasure can I have in seeing a girl grow up to eclipse me, and enjoy those pleasures that I am for ever debarred from?

Wow and here I was almost feeling sorry for her

“It is possible we may meet again,” and “will it be of any consequence to you whether we do or not?”

“I mean that he will go home and dream of me. I have shot him through the heart!”

She's ridiculous 😭

she regretted having “used him up so soon,” like a child that, having devoured its plumcake too hastily, sits sucking its fingers, and vainly lamenting its greediness

Rip Bruce. Better than a dog, never smelled, never made noise, and his aquarium provided some nice ambiance

I had a little orange fish called Bruce (like the shark), he lived for 8 years, I fed him every day very diligently (which is amazing looking back because I'm so forgetful), he went with us on all our vacations, all our road trips. Long story short, I've never been able to take characters named Bruce very seriously

for I liked to hear him—and I liked to see him, too; though I knew he was not handsome, or even what is called agreeable, in outward aspect; but, certainly, he was not ugly
