Thoughts and tyrants

“Still let my tyrants know, I am not doomed to wear year after year in gloom, and desolate despair, a messenger of hope comes every night to me, and offers for short life, eternal liberty.”

(Emily Brontë; qoutet from her poem Still let my tyrants know, I am not doomed to wear)

*

“Thoughts are tyrants that return again and again to torment us.”

(Emily Brontë; Wuthering Heights)

*

The night is darkening round me, 
The wild winds coldly blow; 
But a tyrant spell has bound me, 
And I cannot, cannot go. 

(Emily Brontë; qoutet from her poem The night is darkening round me)
