Henry James
“Try to be one of those on whom nothing is lost.”
Henry James, The art of fiction

Henry James
“I intend to judge things for myself; to judge wrongly, I think, is more honorable than not to judge at all.”
Henry James

“There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.”

Henry James
“I'm yours for ever--for ever and ever. Here I stand; I'm as firm as a rock. If you'll only trust me, how little you'll be disappointed. Be mine as I am yours.”
Henry James, The Portrait of a Lady

Henry James
“It has made me better loving you... it has made me wiser, and easier, and brighter. I used to want a great many things before, and to be angry that I did not have them. Theoretically, I was satisfied. I flattered myself that I had limited my wants. But I was subject to irritation; I used to have morbid sterile hateful fits of hunger, of desire. Now I really am satisfied, because I can’t think of anything better. It’s just as when one has been trying to spell out a book in the twilight, and suddenly the lamp comes in. I had been putting out my eyes over the book of life, and finding nothing to reward me for my pains; but now that I can read it properly I see that it’s a delightful story.”
Henry James, The Portrait of a Lady
