Charles Dickens Quotes, Men Quotes, Perfection Quotes

The unqualified truth is, that when I loved Estella with the love of a man, I loved her simply because I found her irresistible.

Once for all; I love her none the less because I knew it, and it had no more influence in restraining me, than if I had devoutly believed her to be human perfection.
