Famous Quotes By Charles Dickens
 A loving heart is the truest wisdom. 
Cheerfulness and contentment are great beautifiers and are famous preservers of youthful looks.
Father Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he tarries for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have used him well; making them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigour. With such people the grey head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life.
Have a heart that never hardens, a temper that never tries, and a touch that never hurts.
I never could have done what I have done without the habits of punctuality, order, and diligence, without the determination to concentrate myself on one subject at a time...
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times; it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness; it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity; it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; we had everything before us, we had nothing before us; we were all going directly to Heaven, we were all going the other way.
Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has plenty; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.
Regrets are the natural property of grey hairs.
