The Chimes, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life, and The Haunted Man Quotes

“It was a heart so full of love for her; so bound up and held together by innumerable threads of winning remembrance, spun from the daily working of her many qualities of endearment; it was a heart in which she had enshrined herself so gently and so closely; a heart so single and so earnest in its Truth, so strong in right, so weak in wrong, that it could cherish neither passion nor revenge at first, and had only room to hold the broken image of its Idol.”
― Charles Dickens, The Chimes, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life, and The Haunted Man
