Nathaniel Hawthorne Quote

What other dungeon is so dark as one's own heart! What jailer so inexorable as one's self!


Ch. XI : The Arched Window - The House of the Seven Gables (1851)


What other dungeon is so dark as one's own heart! What jailer so inexorable as one's self!

What other dungeon is so dark as one's own heart! What jailer so inexorable as one's self!

What other dungeon is so dark as one's own heart! What jailer so inexorable as one's self!

What other dungeon is so dark as one's own heart! What jailer so inexorable as one's self!
