QUOTES BY Mary Shelley


Nothing is so painful to the human mind as a great and sudden change.

Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful.

No man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness, the good he seeks.

Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is dear to me, and I will defend it.

If I cannot inspire love, I will cause fear!

How dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to be greater than his nature will allow.

The beginning is always today.

I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel...

Solitude was my only consolation - deep, dark, deathlike solitude.
