About Emily Brontë

1818 – 1848

English novelist and poet, author of 'Wuthering Heights' (1847).

“I've dreamt in my life dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas.”

“Shall Earth no more inspire thee, Thou lonely dreamer now?”

“The night is darkening round me, The wild winds coldly blow; But a tyrant spell has bound me And I cannot, cannot go.”

“Let whatever appears to be the best be to you an inviolable law.”

“Lord, what fools these mortals be!”

“All that glisters is not gold.”

“Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.”

“And one man in his time plays many parts.”

“Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice.”
