Nathaniel Hawthorne quotes
" A pure hand needs no glove to cover it. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" A woman's chastity consists, like an onion, of a series of coats. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Accuracy is the twin brother of honesty; inaccuracy, of dishonesty. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" 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. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Caresses, expressions of one sort or another, are necessary to the life of the affections as leaves are to the life of a tree. If they are wholly restrained, love will die at the roots. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Easy reading is damn hard writing. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Every individual has a place to fill in the world and is important in some respect whether he chooses to be so or not. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally. Make it the object of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is never attained. Follow some other object, and very possibly we may find that we have caught happiness without dreaming of it. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" In our nature, however, there is a provision, alike marvelous and merciful, that the sufferer should never know the intensity of what he endures by its present torture, but chiefly by the pang that rankles after it. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" It contributes greatly towards a man's moral and intellectual health, to be brought into habits of companionship with individuals unlike himself, who care little for his pursuits, and whose sphere and abilities he must go out of himself to appreciate. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Life is made up of marble and mud. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Love, whether newly born, or aroused from a deathlike slumber, must always create sunshine, filling the heart so full of radiance, this it overflows upon the outward world. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" Moonlight is sculpture. "

Nathaniel Hawthorne
" My fortune somewhat resembled that of a person who should entertain an idea of committing suicide, and, altogether beyond his hopes, meet with the good hap to be murdered. "
