Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else.

Money and goods are certainly the best of references.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

And can it be that in a world...

And can it be that in a world so full and busy the loss of one creature makes a void so wide and deep that nothing but the width and depth of eternity can fill it up!

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Never," said my aunt, "be mea...

Never," said my aunt, "be mean in anything; never be false; never be cruel. Avoid those three vices, Trot, and I can always be hopeful of you.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

There is nothing--no, nothing...

There is nothing--no, nothing--innocent or good, that dies and is forgotten; let us hold to that faith or none. An infant, a prattling child, dying in the cradle, will live again in the better thoughts of those that loved it, and play its part through them in the redeeming actions of the world, though its body be burnt to ashes or drowned in the deep sea.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

On the eve of long voyages or...

On the eve of long voyages or an absence of many years, friends who are tenderly attached will seperate with the usual look, the usual pressure of the hand, planning one final interview for the morrow, while each well knows that it is but a poor feint to save the pain of uttering that one word, and the meeting will never be. Should possibilities be worse to bear than certainties?

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

He was touched in the cavity ...

He was touched in the cavity where his heart should have been, in that nest of addled eggs, where the birds of heaven would have lived if they had not been whistled away, by the fervour of this reproach.

Accidentally consumed five biscuits when I wasn't paying attention. Those biscuits are wily fellows - they leap in like sugary ninjas

We can refute assertions, but who can refute silence?

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

What lawsuits grow out of the...

What lawsuits grow out of the graves of rich men, every day; sowing perjury, hatred, and lies among near kindred, where there should be nothing but love!

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

A heart well worth winning, a...

A heart well worth winning, and well won. A heart that, once won, goes through fire and water for the winner, and never changes, and is never daunted.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Time and tide will wait for no man, saith the adage. But all men have to wait for time and tide.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Father Time is not always a h...

Father Time is not always a hard parent and though he tarries for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well; making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigor. With such people the gray head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Ride on! Ride on over all obstacles and win the race.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

It is a fair, even-handed, no...

It is a fair, even-handed, noble adjustment of things, that while there is infection in disease and sorrow, there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Everybody said so. Far be it ...

Everybody said so. Far be it from me to assert that what everybody says must be true. Everybody is, often, as likely to be wrong as right.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

The New Testament is the very best book that ever was or ever will be known in the world.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

Love, though said to be affli...

Love, though said to be afflicted with blindness, is a vigilant watchman.

Charles Dickens 1195 quotes

The sum of the whole is this:...

The sum of the whole is this: walk and b« happy! walk and be healthy. The best of all ways to lengthen ourdays, is notas Mr. Thomas Moore has it, " ]To steal a few hours from night, my love;" but with leave, be it spoken, to walk steadily and with a purpose.
