Poetry Quote by Anne Brontë — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I wished to tell the truth, for truth always conveys its own moral to those who are able to receive it.”

“My prayers, my tears, my wishes, fears, and lamentations, were witnessed by myself and heaven alone. When we are harassed by sorrows or anxieties, or long oppressed by any powerful feelings which we must keep to ourselves, for which we can obtain and seek no sympathy from any living creature, and which yet we cannot, or will not wholly crush, we often naturally seek relief in poetry—and often find it, too—whether in the effusions of others, which seem to harmonize with our existing case, or in our own attempts to give utterance to those thoughts and feelings in strains less musical, perchance, but more appropriate, and therefore more penetrating and sympathetic, and, for the time, more soothing, or more powerful to rouse and to unburden the oppressed and swollen heart.”

“when we have to do with vice and vicious characters, I maintain it is better to depict them as they really are than as they would wish to appear.”

“All our talents increase in the using, and the every faculty, both good and bad, strengthen by exercise.”

“What the world stigmatizes as romantic is often more nearly allied to the truth than is commonly supposed.”

“In the final analysis it is between you and God, it was never between you and them anyway.”

“You love too hard,”

“For you may palm upon us new for old:”

“We flatter those we scarcely know,”

“All shadows of clouds the sun cannot hide”

“هَذا الّذي تَعرِفُ البَطْحاءُ وَطْأتَهُ، وَالبَيْتُ يعْرِفُهُ وَالحِلُّ وَالحَرَمُ”
