A satisfying cabin is better than a ruthless palace. Where love is, everything is available.

　　　　——"David Copperfield"

Mature love, respect, and loyalty are not easily shown. Its sound is low. It is humble, it yields, it lies dormant, waiting and waiting. Ripe fruit is like this. Sometimes life passes away, but love is still waiting to mature in secret.

　　　　————"David Copperfield"

Love is above all earthly considerations...

　　————"David Copperfield" "You"

In this cruel world, love must suffer. It has been like this in the past and it will be like this in the future. ...The heart surrounded by cobwebs is about to burst, and then love takes its revenge.

　　　　——"David Copperfield"

If she likes me to die for him, she can just say that word, I am willing to do so. Life without Dora's love is impossible anyway. I cannot endure this kind of life, nor will I endure it. I have loved her every minute of the day and night since I first met her. I loved her so much in that minute. I want to love her every minute until I'm crazy. Lovers have loved each other in the past, and lovers will love each other again; but no lover has ever been able, able, willing, ever to love Dora as I do.

　　　　——"David Copperfield"

I hope that true love and loyalty will eventually be more powerful than all the sins or misfortunes in the world.

Her shadow was my refuge from disappointment and pain.

　　　　　——"David Copperfield"

I was not only deeply in love with her, I was completely saturated. Metaphorically speaking, the love squeezed out of me is enough to drown anyone; but what is left inside and outside me is enough to saturate my entire being.

　　　　——"David Copperfield"

I think she is not a mortal. She was a fairy, a Silbin, and I didn't know what she was—something no one had ever seen, something everyone wanted. I immediately fell into the abyss of love. I didn't stop at the edge of the abyss; I didn't look down or back; before I could say a word to her, I fell headfirst into it.

　　　　——"David Copperfield"

She has the sweetest little voice and the funniest little smile, turning a fascinated young man into a devoted slave. The most pleasant and touching little gestures. Everything about her is small. The smaller it is, the cuter it is, I think.
