Anne Brontë foi uma poetisa e romancista britânica, a mais jovem da família literária Brontë.

Filha de Patrick Brontë, um clérigo irlandês pobre, Anne Brontë viveu a maioria da sua vida com a sua família na aldeia de Haworth, nos morros de Yorkshire. Entre 1836 e 1837, frequentou um internato em Mirfield, também em Yorkshire. Aos 19 anos, Anne deixou Haworth e trabalhou como governanta entre 1839 e 1845. Depois de deixar este emprego, começou a cumprir o seu desejo de se tornar escritora. Em 1846, publicou um volume de poesia com as suas irmãs e, no ano seguinte, publicou o romance Agnes Grey, baseado nas suas próprias experiências como governanta. O seu segundo e último romance, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, considerado um dos primeiros romances feministas, foi publicado em 1848. À semelhança dos seus poemas, ambos os seus romances foram publicados sob o pseudónimo masculino Acton Bell. Anne faleceu ainda jovem, aos 29 anos, vítima de tuberculose pulmonar. Wikipedia

Anne Brontë Frases famosas

“Não há nada como enxergar o coração de uma pessoa através de seus olhos, e aprender mais sobre a altura, a largura e profundidade de sua alma em uma hora, o que levaria uma vida inteira para descobrir, se ele ou ela não quisesse revelar, ou se você não tiver discernimento para entender.”

There is such a thing as looking through a person's eyes into the heart, and learning more of the height, and breadth, and depth of another's soul in one hour than it might take you a lifetime to discover, if he or she were not disposed to reveal it, or if you had not the sense to understand it.
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848), Chapter 11

“É muito bom falar sobre a nobre resistência e provas de virtude, porém a cada cinquenta – ou quinhentos – homens que se cederam à tentação, mostre-me apenas um que teve a virtude de resistir. E como eu deveria tomar como certo que meu filho será um em mil, ao invés de me preparar para o pior e supor que ele será como o resto da humanidade, a não ser que eu tente evitar isso?”

It is all very well to talk about noble resistance, and trials of virtue; but for fifty—or five hundred men that have yielded to temptation, shew me one that has had virtue to resist. And why should I take it for granted that my son will be one in a thousand?—and not rather prepare for the worst, and suppose he will be like his——like the rest of mankind, unless I take care to prevent it?
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848), Chapter 3

“Quando sentir que é meu dever falar uma verdade intragável, com a ajuda de Deus, EU A DIREI, embora isso prejudique meu nome, o prazer imediato do leitor e o meu próprio.”

Anne Brontë: Frases em inglês

“I would rather have your friendship than the love of any other woman in the world!”

Anne Brontë livro The Tenant of Wildfell Hall

Fonte: The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848), Ch. XII : A Tête-à-tête and a Discovery; Gilbert to Helen
Contexto: You couldn't have given me less encouragement, or treated me with greater severity than you did! And if you think you have wronged me by giving me your friendship, and occasionally admitting to me to the enjoyment of your company and conversation, when all hopes of close intimacy were vain — as indeed you always gave me to understand — if you think you have wronged me by this, you are mistaken; for such favours, in themselves alone, are not only delightful to my heart, but purifying, exalting, ennobling to my soul; and I would rather have your friendship than the love of any other woman in the world!
