“I’ll walk, but not in old heroic traces,
And not in paths of high morality,
And not among the half-distinguished faces,
The clouded forms of long-past history.

I’ll walk where my own nature would be leading:
It vexes me to choose another guide:
Where the grey flocks in ferny glens are feeding;
Where the wild wind blows on the mountain side.”
― Emily Brontë, Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell

“that to lose one’s intellect was akin to letting seeds wither and die in the dark ground”

“For you, a thousand times over”
