Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"Will it be long--will it be short?" thought I, passing my hand across
my eyes to dissipate the silvery dimness of a suave, south-wind
shower.


It was long.


"Will it be cool?--will it be kind?"


It was kind.


To my checked, bridled, disciplined expectation, it seemed very kind:
to my longing and famished thought it seemed, perhaps, kinder than it
was.
