Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"Papa, you don't--you have not fallen in; you are safe on the bank;
you can do as you please; your power is despotic; you can shut me up
in a convent, and break Graham's heart to-morrow, if you choose to be
so cruel. Now, autocrat, now czar, will you do this?"


"Off with him to Siberia, red whiskers and all; I say, I don't like
him, Polly, and I wonder that you should."


"Papa," said she, "do you know you are very naughty? I never saw you
look so disagreeable, so unjust, so almost vindictive before. There is
an expression in your face which does not belong to you."
