"I've really realised that while Henry James is exactly my kind of genius, he isn't for the masses. I was thinking about how to explain the "plot" of what I've read so far and I realised ofc that would be absurd, but also in character study, it's not like I'm learning of types. In fact it's more the interpersonal interactions that really stand out. It's the subtlety of dialogue, the strain of emotion! Beautiful but..." — Sep 10, 2026 03:36PM

“If all the world hated you and believed you wicked, while your own conscience approved of you and absolved you from guilt, you would not be without friends.”

“To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.”
― Crime and Punishment

“Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal — as we are!”

“Every atom of your flesh is as dear to me as my own: in pain and sickness it would still be dear.”
― Jane Eyre
