Rebecca

“God surely did not create us, and cause us to live, with the sole end of wishing always to die. I believe, in my heart, we were intended to prize life and enjoy it, so long as we retain it. Existence never was originally meant to be that useless, blank, pale, slow-trailing thing it often becomes to many, and is becoming to me, among the rest.”
― Charlotte Brontë, Shirley

“Procrastination is the thief of time, collar him.”
― Charles Dickens, David Copperfield

“Always be a poet, even in prose.”
― Charles Baudelaire

“The greatest good you can do for another is not just share your riches, but to reveal to him his own.”
― Benjamin Disraeli
