“In this world, there is no such sternness like that of maintaining silence. Verbal sternness will be wasted.”
Dada Bhagwan“New England is the home of all that is good and noble with all her sternness and uncompromising opinions.”
Ellen Swallow Richards“What children expect from grownups is not to be 'understood' but only to be loved even though this love may be expressed clumsily or in sternness. Intimacy does not exist between generations - only trust.”
Carl Zucker“But if I feel, may I never express?” “Never!” declared Reason.I groaned under her bitter sternness. Never - never - oh, hard word! This hag, this Reason, would not let me look up, or smile, or hope; she could not rest unless I were altogether crushed, cowed, broken-in, and broken down. According to her, I was born only to work for a piece of bread, to await the pains of death, and steadily through all life to despond. Reason might be right; yet no wonder we are glad at times to defy her, to rush from under her rod and give a truant hour to Imagination - her soft, bright foe, our sweet Help, our divine Hope.”
Charlotte Brontë, Villette
