Charlotte Bronte Quotes:

Ocupation: Novelist

Life: April 21, 1816 - March 31, 1855

Birthday: April 21

Death: March 31

I like to see flowers growing, but when they are gathered, they cease to please. I look on them as things rootless and perishable; their likeness to life makes me sad. I never offer flowers to those I love; I never wish to receive them from hands dear to me.
