some of my favorite wuthering heights quotes;

"i have not broken your heart - you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine."

"if you ever looked at me once with what i know is in you, i would be your slave."

"i have dreamt in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind. and this is one: i'm going to tell it - but take care not to smile at any part of it."

"she burned too bright for this world."

"terror made me cruel . . ."

♡

"i gave him my heart, and he took and pinched it to death; and flung it back to me. people feel with their hearts, ellen, and since he has destroyed mine, i have not power to feel for him."

♡

"he's more myself than i am. whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same."

♡

"if all else perished, and he remained, i should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger."

"i have dreamt in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind. and this is one: i'm going to tell it - but take care not to smile at any part of it."

of course, this is not my own writing and all credit goes to the author, emily brontë.

thus is one of my favorite books and you should definitely read it if your in high school.
