Thomas Hardy

Citas

• “The sovereign brilliancy of Sirius pierced the eye with a steely glitter, the star called Capella was yellow, Aldebaran and Betelgueux shone with a fiery red. To persons standing alone on a hill during a clear midnight such as this, the roll of the world eastward is almost a palpable movement.”

• “To dwellers in a wood almost every species of tree has its voice as well as its feature. At the passing of the breeze the fir-trees sob and moan no less distinctly than they rock; the holly whistles as it battles with itself; the ash hisses amid its quiverings; the beech rustles while its flat boughs rise and fall.”

• “Like the British Constitution, she owes her success in practice to her inconsistencies in principle.”

• “A novel is an impression, not an argument.”

• “Overhead the hollow stretch of whitish cloud shutting out the sky was as a tent which had the whole heath for its floor.”
