“I’ve done no injustice, and I repent of nothing. I’m too happy; and yet I’m not happy enough. My soul's bliss kills my body, but does not satisfy itself.”
― Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“I repeat it till my tongue stiffens—Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest as long as I am living; you said I killed you—haunt me, then!”
― Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“Sources do not speak for themselves, graciously yielding up facts to the patient researcher, who approaches the evidence with his or her mind a tabula rasa cleared of personal views and preferences. Historians select material from archives and libraries with their minds freighted with preconceptions of various kinds, including hypotheses they wish to test, questions they want to answer, ideas about topics and issues they want to explore and understand.”
― Paul Readman, Land and Nation in England: Patriotism, National Identity, and the Politics of Land, 1880-1914

“There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.” —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The Boscombe Valley Mystery”
― L.J. Ross, Impostor
