Wuthering Heights : A total eclipse of the heart.

In one of the oldest heart-wrenching classics in the "lost love can turn a good man evil" scenario, Emily Brontë’s novel takes us back to 1802 at the Wuthering Heights estate. In this timeless love story, our leading man Heathcliff grows to become best friends with his adopted sister, Catherine, his life-long crush. But an offhand comment, overheard at the Heights, changes the course of both of their lives.

Quotes:

1. 1.“He's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”  他比我更像我自己，不管我们的灵魂是什么做的，他和我永远是一样

2. 2.“If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger.” 若一切都已灭亡，但他依旧还在，我就会继续存在；若一切都还在，但他已灭亡，这宇宙对我而言就会变成一位伟大的陌生人

3. 3.“Be with me always - take any form - drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I can not live without my life! I can not live without my soul!”  不管以任何形式，你都要永远与我同在，让我疯狂。我只要你别把我留在这个无法找寻到你的深渊里。上帝啊，我的爱我难以用言语表达。没有我的生命我就无法活下去，没有我的灵魂我就无法活下去。

4. 4.“He wanted all to lie in an ecstasy of peace; I wanted all to sparkle and dance in a glorious jubilee. I said his heaven would be only half alive; and he said mine would be drunk: I said I should fall asleep in his; and he said he could not breathe in mine.” 他愿一切都停留在平静的狂喜中；我愿一切都在荣耀的欢庆中闪烁舞蹈。我说他的天堂只有一般的生命，他说我的天堂是烂醉如泥。我说我会在他的天堂中睡去，他说他在我的天堂中无法呼吸。

5. 5.“Because misery, and degradation, and death, and nothing that God or Satan could inflict would have parted us, you, of your own will did it. I have not broken your heart - you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine. So much the worse for me that I am strong.” 因为不幸，堕落，死亡，和上帝或恶魔使我们遭受的一切都无法将我们分开，是你，是你的意念让我们分离。 我没有让你心碎，是你碎了你自己的心。在你心碎的同时，你也让我心碎。

6. 6.“I’ve dreamt in my life dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas: they’ve gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the colour of my mind.” 这一生做过的梦，有些会永远伴我前行，改变着我的想法：它们一次次穿过我，像红酒流过清水，改变我脑海中的颜色。

7. 7. treachery and violence are spears pointed at both ends: they wound those who resort to them, worse than their enemies.” 背叛与暴力是一把双刃剑：他们伤害主动者胜过被动者。
