Yesterday's quotation was quite a long one, so I'm going for something a bit snappier today and I've chosen a quotation by a character from Wuthering Heights, the well known book by Emily Bronte.
I love the Brontes, love the Parsonage museum in Haworth and love Haworth itself, (tourist trap though it may be!) Somehow, for me anyway, it still retains its charm, and last night I re-watched my copy of 'To Walk Invisible' the really good BBC TV film about the Brontes.
Probably my very favourite Bronte book is Wuthering Heights, and this was said by character Nelly Dean. For those who haven't read the book, she's the housekeeper and is the main narrator of the story.
Speaking to Mr Lockwood, she says:
"A person who has not done one half of his day's work by ten o'clock, runs a chance of leaving the other half undone".
OK, Nelly Dean, hands up, I am guilty as charged! Especially at the moment!
Have a great day whether you're busy, or, like me, procrastinating as usual!
To Kill A Mockingbird is a really good book isn't it sassy59. I tried the sequel Go Set a Watchman which was only published a few years ago and I couldn't get on with it at all! No wonder the publishers accepted To Kill A Mockingbird in preference! Well I've had another day of wonderful procrastination and am I worried? Not a lot! As you say, where's the rush at the moment! It was a really lovely day and I hope you enjoyed yours in the garden. Take care sassy59 and stay safe.🌺🦋☀️🌿 xxx
😀 Oh definitely kerfuffle is the word for grocery shopping online, but thank goodness for it at the moment, even though it can be hassle. Glad you enjoyed the garden! Stay safe too.... xx🌈🦋🌈🌺💖
