Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"All these weary days," said he, repeating my words, with a gentle,
kindly mimicry of my voice and foreign accent, not new from his lips,
and of which the playful banter never wounded, not even when coupled,
as it often was, with the assertion, that however I might _write_
his language, I _spoke_ and always should speak it imperfectly
and hesitatingly. "'All these weary days' I have not for one hour
forgotten you. Faithful women err in this, that they think themselves
the sole faithful of God's creatures. On a very fervent and living
truth to myself, I, too, till lately scarce dared count, from any
quarter; but----look at me.",
