Expiation For Rest
Posted in Quotes, tagged Charles Dickens, Expiation, On Death, On Hope, Quotes on June 3, 2016| Leave a Comment »
I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people rising from this abyss, and, in their struggles to be truly free, in their triumphs and defeats, through long years to come, I see the evil of this time and of the previous time of which this is the natural birth, gradually making expiation for itself and wearing out. | |
It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known. | |
— Charles Dickens | |
From his novel: “A Tale of Two Cities“ | |
