Charles Dickens quotes
Lovely quotes from Charles Dickens. (Yes, I'm a few days behind on quotes of the day -- hush). Enjoy!
Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.
The stateliest building man can raise is the ivy's food at last.
He had but one eye, and the popular prejudice runs in favor of two.
Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine.
It would do us no harm to remember oftener than we do, that vices are sometimes only virtues carried to excess!
It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.
When a man bleeds inwardly, it is a dangerous thing for himself; but when he laughs inwardly, it bodes no good to other people.
Cheerfulness and contentment are great beautifiers and are famous preservers of youthful looks.
