Miss Havisham:
“she was dressed in rich materials,- satins, and lace, and silks,- all of white”
“You can break his heart”
“she must have looked as if the admission of the natural light of day would have struck her to
dust”
"It would have been cruel in Miss Havisham, horribly cruel, to practice on the susceptibility of
a poor boy, and to torture me through all these years with a vain hope and an idle pursuit, if
she had reflected on the gravity of what she did. But I think she did not."
“as though she were devouring the beautiful creature she had reared”
Pip:
“If you are grateful to me for what I did when I was a little child, I hope you have shown your
gratitude by mending your way of life. If you have come here to thank me, it was not
necessary”
“I knew it was Joe, by his clumsy manner of coming upstairs”
Estella:
“Why, he is a common labouring boy”
“She was as scornful of me as if she had been one and twenty, and a queen”
“That girl’s hard and haughty and capricious to the last degree, and has been brought up by
Miss Havisham to wreak revenge on all the male sex”
“I am what you made me. take all the praise, take all the blame; take all the success, take all
the failure; in short, take me.”
“her light came along the long dark passage like a star”
“I must be taken as I have been made. The success is not mine, the failure is not mine, but
the two together make me”
“The freshness of her beauty was indeed gone, but its indescribable majesty and its
indescribable charm remained”
Magwitch:
“a fearful man”
“Limped and shivered and glared and growled”
“In jail and out of jail, in jail and out of jail, in jail and out of jail”
Joe:
“Yet Joe,dear Joe,you never tell of it. Long-suffering and loving Joe,you never complain. Nor
you, sweet-tempered Biddy”
“A fair man”
“curls of flaxen hair on each side of his smooth face”
“eyes of such a very undecided blue”
“dear old Pip, old chap”
“Purple leptic fit” - malapropism
“Ever the best of friends; ain’t us,Pip”
“Dreadful dull”
“a sort of Hercules in strength, and also in weakness”
“My mother and me” - lack of education
“a mere blacksmith”
“I’m wrong in these clothes. I’m wrong out of the forge, the kitchen, or off th’ meshes”
“she was dressed in rich materials,- satins, and lace, and silks,- all of white”
“You can break his heart”
“she must have looked as if the admission of the natural light of day would have struck her to
