Isabella Linton: Take care, Ellen. He wishes to provoke Edgar to desperation. I'll die first. The single pleasure I can imagine is to die, or see him dead.

Heathcliff: Now, my bonny lad, you're mine. Let's see if one tree won't grow as crooked as another, with the same wind to twist it.

Heathcliff: Misery and degradation and death and nothing that God or Satan could inflict would have parted us, you of your own will, did it. I have not broken your heart - you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine.

Heathcliff: Why did you betray your own heart, Cathy? You loved me. And what right had you to leave me? The poor fancy you felt for Linton? Nothing that God or Satan could inflict would have parted us. You of your own will did it. I've not broken your heart Cathy, you have broken it. And in breaking it, you've broken mine.

Heathcliff: I pray one prayer, I repeat it till my tongue stiffens. Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest as long as I am living! You said I killed you, haunt me, then!... Be with me always, take any form, drive me mad, only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you!... I cannot live without my life. I cannot live without my soul.

Cathy Linton: It would degrade me to marry Heathcliff now.

Cathy Linton: My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff is the eternal rock beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I AM Heathcliff!

Cathy Linton: If I've done wrong I'm dying for it.

Cathy Linton: You left me, too, but I forgive you. Forgive me.::Heathcliff: It's so hard... to forgive alone, it's a lie. Yes, I forgive what you've done to me. I love my murderer. But yours... how can I?

Emily Bronte: All our lives there has been too much left unsaid between us. Loving is the only thing that really matters, Charlotte. It's worthwhile being hurt a bit to find that out. The world has always frightened me a little, so I'm really not afraid to leave it now. Though sometimes, when I hear the wind blowing through the heather, or see the sun go down beyond Wuthering Heights, I think, perhaps, I'd like to stay just a little longer.

Emily Bronte "The Prisoner" Poem animation

Order: Reorder
Duration: 2 min 36 sec
Updated: 13 Jan 2014

Heres a virtual movie of the great Emily Bronte (1818 -- 1848) reading her much lovrd poem "The Prisoner" written by her in October 1845,and published like most of her works after her death. "The Prisoner" was originally written to be included in the Gondal saga. The Gondal saga was a series of stories about an imaginary island that Emily Bronte worked on with her younger sister Anne. The poems and stories that they included in this collection were full of "political intrigue, passionate love, rebellion, war, imprisonment, and exile" (Norton 1419). Bronte creates a heroine out of the prisoner; though she suffers, she has, and will, fully overcome her prison with the help of a Divine power. Through death, God will release the prisoner from her confines and justify her wrongful imprisonment. In the third stanza, the speaker, a young man visiting his fathers dungeon, proclaims "God forgive my youth, forgive my careless tongue" as he begins to recount his mocking of the prisoner. The prisoner knows that her confinement is unjust and knows that God recognizes that, and so is very calm; but this realization by the speaker, as he is telling it looking back, is somewhat frightening and unsettling to him. Especially after her discourse when he realizes "Her cheek, her gleaming eye, declared that man had given / A sentence unapproved, and overruled by Heaven." The prisoner would be released from her chains, but the speaker would then be bound with the chains of guilt, knowing that she should never have been in them at all. The jailer, as well, jibes the prisoner: "Dost think, foolish dreaming wretch, that I shall grant thy prayer?" But, she just smiles at him for her knowledge. She did not and will not ask anything of him, because there is nothing he could replace for her. Only God can restore the life and the family that she has lost. Since the guard can offer her no salvation, he can also instill no fear in her; at this point, the existence of the two men is irrelevant to her existence. Every night the prisoner experiences magnificent dreams she could never have imagined before: "I could never dream till earth was lost to me." It is after her dreams that the prisoner suffers the most, since she continues to wake up from them. All of the beauty and serenity of heaven are revealed to her, yet as soon as the calm sets and she starts to awaken, her soul returns, and it once again begins "to feel the flesh and the flesh to feel the chain." The dreams are her hope as much as they are her torment; with them her future is revealed to her, but her present is then brought strikingly back. There are frequent references to God or some other greater power that is in control of the universe. The prisoner is even described with the face of a "sculptured marble saint." She tells her captors that she is visited every night by a "messenger of Hope," who promises her freedom for death. The "Unseen" reveals its truth to her in magnificent dreams, showing her how she will live for eternity. Her torture now is the waiting, not the confinement, because she knows that a better existence is to come, just not when. The only thing she knows for sure is that without her suffering, her relief will not come. In the second to last stanza, the prisoner says, "Yet I would lose no string, would wish no torture less; / The more that anguish racks the earlier it will bless." She knew that there was a greater force in the world than mankind, and that force recognized that her punishment was unjust, and showed her that her wrongs would be righted in a better place than the world she was in. Emily Brontes, "The Prisoner: A Fragment," is both about imprisonment and hope. The prisoner has suffered great losses unjustly, but her soul will be rewarded in Heaven. Bronte uses the young man and the jailer to depict all those that had played a part in her captivity; and, thus the young man will suffer in the future with his realization that mans will must always secede to Gods. The prisoner is a symbol of hope for all those wrongfully accused that their wrongs would be righted; as for their accusers, their fate depends on what they do with their knowledge.

'Rememberance' - poem by Emily Bronte 1818 - 1848 read by Stella Gonet rnaudioproductions for http://www.ipodity.com/ http://www.allcast.co.uk/ audio production Robert nichol Cold in the earth—and the deep snow piled above thee, Far, far removed, cold in the dreary grave! Have I forgot, my only Love, to love thee, Severed at last by Time's all-severing wave? Now, when alone, do my thoughts no longer hover Over the mountains, on that northern shore, Resting their wings where heath and fern-leaves cover That noble heart for ever, ever more? Cold in the earth, and fifteen wild Decembers From those brown hills have melted into spring: Faithful indeed is the spirit that remembers After such years of change and suffering! Sweet Love of youth, forgive if I forget thee, While the world's tide is bearing me along: Sterner desires and other hopes beset me, Hopes which obscure, but cannot do thee wrong! No later light has lightened up my heaven; No second morn has ever shone for me: All my life's bliss from thy dear life was given, All my life's bliss is in the grave with thee. But when the days of golden dreams had perished, And even Despair was powerless to destroy, Then did I learn how existence could be cherished, Strengthened, and fed without the aid of joy; Then did I check the tears of useless passion, Weaned my young soul from yearning after thine; Sternly denied its burning wish to hasten Down to that tomb already more than mine. And even yet I dare not let it languish, Dare not indulge in Memory's rapturous pain; Once drinking deep of that divinest anguish, How could I seek the empty world again?

Duration: 37 min 59 sec
Updated: 13 Jan 2014

Emily Jane Brontë (/ˈbrɒnti/; 30 July 1818 -- 19 December 1848) was an English novelist and poet, best remembered for her solitary novel, Wuthering Heights, now considered a classic of English literature. Emily was the third eldest of the four surviving Brontë siblings, between the youngest Anne and her brother Branwell. She published under the pen name Ellis Bell. Emily Brontë was born on 30 July 1818 in Thornton, near Bradford in Yorkshire, to Maria Branwell and Patrick Brontë. She was the younger sister of Charlotte Brontë and the fifth of six children. In 1824, the family moved to Haworth, where Emily's father was perpetual curate, and it was in these surroundings that their literary gifts flourished. After the death of their mother in 1821, when Emily was three years old, the older sisters Maria, Elizabeth and Charlotte were sent to the Clergy Daughters' School at Cowan Bridge, where they encountered abuse and privations later described by Charlotte in Jane Eyre. Emily joined the school for a brief period. When a typhus epidemic swept the school, Maria and Elizabeth caught it. Maria, who may actually have had tuberculosis, was sent home, where she died. Emily was subsequently removed from the school along with Charlotte and Elizabeth. Elizabeth died soon after their return home. The three remaining sisters and their brother Patrick Branwell were thereafter educated at home by their father and aunt Elizabeth Branwell, their mother's sister. In their leisure time the children created a number of fantasy worlds, which were featured in stories they wrote and enacted about the imaginary adventures of their toy soldiers along with the Duke of Wellington and his sons, Charles and Arthur Wellesley. Little of Emily's work from this period survives, except for poems spoken by characters (The Brontës' Web of Childhood, Fannie Ratchford, 1941). When Emily was 13, she and Anne withdrew from participation in the Angria story and began a new one about Gondal, a large island in the North Pacific. With the exception of Emily's Gondal poems and Anne's lists of Gondal's characters and place-names, their writings on Gondal were not preserved. Some "diary papers" of Emily's have survived in which she describes current events in Gondal, some of which were written, others enacted with Anne. One dates from 1841, when Emily was twenty-three: another from 1845, when she was twenty-seven. At seventeen, Emily attended the Roe Head girls' school, where Charlotte was a teacher, but managed to stay only three months before being overcome by extreme homesickness. She returned home and Anne took her place. At this time, the girls' objective was to obtain sufficient education to open a small school of their own. Wuthering Heights is the only published novel by Emily Brontë, written between October 1845 and June 1846 and published in July of the following year. It was not printed until December 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell, after the success of her sister Charlotte Brontë's novel Jane Eyre. A posthumous second edition was edited by Charlotte in 1850. The title of the novel comes from the Yorkshire manor on the moors of the story. The narrative centres on the all-encompassing, passionate, but ultimately doomed love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, and how this unresolved passion eventually destroys them and the people around them. Today considered a classic of English literature, Wuthering Heights met with mixed reviews and controversy when it first appeared, mainly because of the narrative's stark depiction of mental and physical cruelty. Although Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre was generally considered the best of the Brontë sisters' works during most of the nineteenth century, many subsequent critics of Wuthering Heights argued that it was a superior achievement. Wuthering Heights has also given rise to many adaptations and inspired works, including films, radio, television dramatisations, a musical by Bernard J. Taylor, a ballet, three operas (by Bernard Herrmann, Carlisle Floyd, and Frédéric Chaslin), a role-playing game, and the 1978 chart-topping song by Kate Bush. This audio collection contains a treasury of 100 classic books and includes info on the life and times of the author, the theme of the book, the characters, the story outline, a concise yet detailed abridgement of the story and a discussion of the values that make each book one of the great classical works of literature. © ''IntelliQuest World's 100 Greatest Books'' 1995 Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Doch diese weist ihn wiederum zurück, da sie von Edgar schwanger ist und Heathcliff viel lieber als einen Freund hätte. Jetzt reicht es Heathcliff endgültig und er startet einen unbarmherzigen Rachefeldzug
