• Do you not know that to-night, when the clock strikes midnight, all the evil things in the world will have full sway?
  • I long to go through the crowded streets of your mighty London, to be in the midst of the whirl and rush of humanity, to share its life, its change, its death, and all that makes it what it is. But alas! as yet I only know your tongue through books.
  • I love the shade and the shadow, and would be alone with my thoughts when I may.
  • Despair has its own calms.
  • No man knows till he has suffered from the night how sweet and how dear to his heart and eye the morning can be.
  • Ah, it is the fault of our science that it wants to explain all; and if it explain not, then it says there is nothing to explain.
  • There are always mysteries in life.
