"I've no more business to marry Edgar Linton than I have to be in heaven; and if the wicked man in there had not brought Heathcliff so low, I shouldn't have thought of it. It would degrade me to marry Heathcliff, now; so he shall never know how I love him; and that, not because he's handsome, Nelly, but because he's more myself than I am.Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same, and Linton's is as different as a moonbeam from lightning, or frost from fire."
-Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
I have a sudden desire to re-read this book, such a powerful and poetic depiction of both love and hate..
About Me
- hyehanorini
- Hyehanorini originated from my whimsical desire to document my life in Korea but has slowly evolved into a place for me to share my learning journey with the people who mean a lot to me. Hyehan is my name in Korean and orini means little child. It was a nickname given to me by my Korean friend and was adopted because of my belief in seeing the world through the eyes of a child. I believe that laughing and smiling is the secret to a happy life. I tell myself everyday that there is nothing wrong with making mistakes, and its okay not to get things right the first time. I believe in working hard to make things happen, but no matter how busy we are, there’s always time for ice cream :) And so, I hope you will enjoy yourself as you join me in discovering new things about life, architecture and people. Through the eyes of Hyehan the orini, that is.
