Tis because we be on a blighted star and not a sound one isn t it Tess
NoorBook
That it would always be summer and autumn and you always courting me and always thinking as much of me as you have done through the past summertime
she moved about in a mental cloud of many coloured idealities which eclipsed all sinister contingencies by its brightness
Never in her life she could swear it from the bottom of her soul had she ever intended to do wrong yet these hard judgments had come Whatever her sins they were not sins of intention but of inadvertence and why should she have been punished so persistently
Beauty lay not in the thing but in what the thing symbolized
Do you know that I have undergone three quarters of this labour entirely for the sake of the fourth quarter
A strong woman who recklessly throws away her strength she is worse than a weak woman who has never had any strength to throw away
Let truth be told women do as a rule live through such humiliations and regain their spirits and again look about them with an interested eye While there s life there s hope is a connviction not so entirely unknown to the betrayed as some amiable theorists would have us believe
I agree to the conditions Angel because you know best what my punishment ought to be only only don t make it more than I can bear
Why didnt you tell me there was danger Why didnt you warn me Ladies know what to guard against because they read novels that tell them of these tricks but I never had the chance of discovering in that way and you did not help me
Don t think of what s past said she I am not going to think outside of now Why should we Who knows what tomorrow has in store

So each had a private little sun for her soul to bask in some dream some affection some hobby or at least some remote and distant hope
She was not an existence an experience a passion a structure of sensations to anybody but herself To all humankind besides Tess was only a passing thought Even to friends she was no more than a frequently passing thought
Did you say the stars were worlds Tess Yes All like ours I don t know but I think so They sometimes seem to be like the apples on our stubbard tree Most of them splendid and sound a few blighted Which do we live on a splendid one or a blighted one A blighted one
Let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid
You and those like you take your fill of pleasure on earth by making the life of such as me bitter and black with sorrow and then it is a fine thing when you have had enough of that to think of securing your pleasure in heaven by becoming converted
Ladies know what to guard against because they read novels that tell them of these tricks…
Did it never strike your mind that what every woman says some women may feel
