A Christmas Carol

Once again, I’m amazed at Dickens’s writing. Also, I had no idea this book was so short.

Love her

While reading Great Expectations, here’s a quote that I really like.  Miss Havisham is speaking to Pip about Estella:

Love her, love her, love her!  If she favours you, love her.  If she wounds you, love her.  If she tears your heart to pieces — and as it gets older and stronger, it will tear deeper — love her, love her, love her!

The part about a heart getting older and stronger and being torn deeper… well.
