Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"To be sure: for old acquaintance sake I like him: then he is a very
good son to his mother; besides being a kind-hearted fellow and clever
in his profession: yes, the callant is well enough."


"_Callant_! Ah, Scotchman! Papa, is it the Edinburgh or the
Aberdeen accent you have?"


"Both, my pet, both: and doubtless the Glaswegian into the bargain. It
is that which enables me to speak French so well: a gude Scots tongue
always succeeds well at the French."
