"The sun himself is weak when he first rises, and gathers strength and courage as the day gets on."
"There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour."
"There are very few people, I imagine, who have not, at some time or other, been in love with some object or other."
"It is a fair, even-handed, noble adjustment of things, that while there is infection in disease and sorrow, there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour."
About Charles Dickens (1812-1870)
English novelist whose Oliver Twist (1838), A Christmas Carol (1843), and Bleak House (1852) made Victorian poverty inescapable for the British middle class. Closely associated with William Makepeace Thackeray (Vanity Fair rival and contemporary serial novelist) and George Eliot (later Victorian giant who built on Dickens's social-realism foundation). For an intellectual contrast, see Jeremy Bentham, founder of utilitarianism (1748-1832) — Mr. Gradgrind in Hard Times (1854) is a direct caricature of Bentham-style social calculation — 'Facts, sir, nothing but Facts!' is the most-cited literary attack on utilitarianism's reduction of human life to measurable units. Dickens's serialized social-novel form is itself a rebuke of utilitarian abstraction.
