The school always breaks my heart. How cruel, how wrong, how pointless.

We know that God is everywhere; but certainly we feel His presence most when His works are on the grandest scale spread before us; and it is in the unclouded night-sky, where His worlds wheel their silent course, that we read clearest His infinitude, His omnipotence, His omnipresence.

“The human and fallible should not arrogate a power with which the divine and perfect alone can be safely intrusted.”

“Why, then, should we ever sink overwhelmed with distress, when life is so soon over, and death is so certain an entrance to happiness—to glory?”
Man, I needed Helen just now.

“Is he a good man?”
“He is a clergyman, and is said to do a great deal of good.”
Ah, what a difference between the two!

I just never got into books with that gothic feel, nor am I a fan of the Bronte sisters books. LOL

Ah! Understandable. Personally, I really love the Brontë novels, but as we say in French, les gouts, ça ne se discute pas—tastes can’t be discussed!
:) Indeed! Just as some strongly dislike Austen or any other classic author! It's funny what people love and hate. I think a lot of it also has to go with when they read it. I was in advanced classes in high school and so they made us read a lot of these books and then analyze them over and over which just don't jive much for high schoolers. And I am confident that's why I dislike some that others love. LOL.
