Quote

"The most miserable and weak creature in the world is the man who has nothing to endure."

Note

"I wish to be perfectly right and cautious in all things. It seems to me, that I was right in stating that you could not be my guardian, Mr. Murdstone, without being my father too; and that if I were your son, you could be my guardian, and could be under no obligation to me to do anything for me that you might not do for someone else. People are very kind to me, and whenever I see my old friends, I begin to feel quite a new existence of it, and of the nobler part of it, as much as if I were among them again. But thinking, remembering, understanding the same world to which I returned, I feel at a loss to explain my trouble, unless it is, that I have some instincts as to whose child I am."
