“There is no happiness like that of being loved by your fellow creatures, and feeling that your presence is an addition to their comfort.”

“Is it better to drive a fellow-creature to despair than to transgress a mere human law, no man being injured by the breach?”

“I liked my name pronounced by your lips in a grateful, happy accent.”

“But if you wish me to love you, could you but see how much I do love you, you would be proud and content. All my heart is yours, sir; it belongs to you; and with you it would remain, were fate to exile the rest of me from your presence forever.”

“All my heart is yours, sir: it belongs to you; and with you it would remain, were fate to exile the rest of me from your presence forever.”

“Make my happiness--I will make yours.”

“Take it to your Maker - show Him the secrets of the spirit He gave - ask Him how you are to bear the pains He appointed - kneel in His presence, and pray with faith for light in darkness, for strength in piteous weakness, for patience in extreme need. Certainly, at some hour, though perhaps not your hour, the waiting waters will stir; in some shape, though not perhaps the shape you dreamed, which your heart loved, and for which it bled, the healing herald will descend.”
