Patience Quote by Charlotte Brontë

Download Open image
““Mr. Yorke wished to know whether this interference, vigilance, and coercion would feed those who were hungry, give work to those who wanted work, and whom no man would hire. He scouted the idea of inevitable evils. He said public patience was a camel, on whose back the last[Pg 48] atom that could be borne had already been laid, and that resistance was now a duty;””
