Quotation from: The Professor

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"It is over-eating that makes you so ill-tempered," said he.


"How do you know?" I demanded. "It is like you to give a
pragmatical opinion without being acquainted with any of the
circumstances of the case; I have had no dinner."


What I said was petulant and snappish enough, and Hunsden only
replied by looking in my face and laughing.


"Poor thing!" he whined, after a pause. "It has had no dinner,
has it? What! I suppose its master would not let it come home.
Did Crimsworth order you to fast by way of punishment, William!"
