Much of the marble coldness of Hester's impression was to be attributed to the circumstance that her life had turned, in a great measure, from passion and feeling, to thought. Standing alone, as to any dependent on society, and with little Pearl to be guided and protected- alone, and hopeless of retrieving her position, even as she had not scorned to consider it desirable, she cast away the fragments of a broken chain.

You are the only person in the world that was ever necessary to me.

A grave, wherever found, preaches a short and pithy sermon to the soul

Life is made up of marble and mud.

All brave men love; for he only is brave who has affections to fight for, whether in the daily battle of life, or in physical contests.

It is a curious subject of observation and inquiry, whether hatred and love be not the same thing at the bottom. Each, in its utmost development, supposes a high degree of intimacy and heart-knowledge; each renders one individual dependent for the food of his affections and spiritual life upon another; each leaves the passionate lover, or the no less passionate hater, forlorn and desolate by the withdrawal of his object. Philosophically considered, therefore, the two passions seem essentially the same, except that one happens to be seen in a celestial radiance and the other in a dusky and lurid glow.

A bodily disease may be but a symptom of some ailment in the spiritual past

The calmer thought is not always the right thought, just as the distant view is not always the truest view

Ugliness without tact is horrible

Människor är lerkrukor med andar i sig.

Mankind are earthen jugs with spirits in them.

Menneskeheten

A pure hand needs no glove to cover it.

The world owes all its onward impulses to men ill at ease. The happy man inevitably confines himself within ancient limits.

My heart was a habitation large enough for many guests, but lonely and chill, and without a household fire. I longed to kindle one! It seemed not so wild a dream . . .

Let men tremble to win the hand of woman, unless they win along with it the utmost passion of her heart! Else it may be their miserable fortune, when some mightier touch than their own may have awakened all her sensibilities, to be reproached even for the calm content, the marble image of happiness, which they will have imposed upon her as the warm reality.

It is not the statesman, the warrior, or the monarch that survives, but the despised poet, whom they may have fed with their crumbs, and to whom they owe that they are now or have a name
