Quote context

[...]

- Heathcliff's in love with me.

- It's a lie!

- It's not a lie. He told me so.

- He's kissed me. Yes, kissed me. Held me in his arms. Told me he loves me.

- Oh! I'm going to your brother.

- Yes, go to Edgar.

- Tell him Heathcliff asked me to marry him. And that I've said yes. You hear? Yes!

- You can't. He's not a man. He's something horrible and dark to live with.

- I know why you say these things. Because you love him.

- How dare you say that?

- Yes, you do love him. You're mad with pain and jealousy at the thought of my marrying him.

- Because you want him to pine for you, dream of you, die for you, while you're safe as the lovely Mrs. Edgar Linton.

- You won't have him happy. You want to hurt and destroy him. But I want to make him happy! And I will! Do you hear? I will!

- Sit down, Cathy. I won't say I'm not surprised to see you.
