Charles Reade

Sow an act and you reap a habit. Sow a habit and you reap a character. Sow a character and you reap a destiny.
Charles Reade

The absent are like children, helpless to defend themselves.
Charles Reade

The joys we expect are not so bright, nor the troubles so dark as we fancy they will be.
