What you said long ago is true. There was a curse on me. It kept me from being myself... or, at least, what I wanted to be. And that kept me from living in - heaven.

Quote context

[...]

- If I can make you happy by just by being kind, that should be enough for me. After all, what else can I give you?

- What else? You've given me a great deal else. You've given me your own self, your strength.

- You'd understand if you really knew what my life was before. It was like the moors, endless and desolate. And I was lost in them, calling for someone in the darkness to save me and nobody answered.

- I couldn't even see the trace of a path. I was so frightened, so terribly alone and...

- And suddenly you were there, Edgar. You held out your hand and led me back to a way of living I thought I'd lost forever.

- What you said long ago is true. There was a curse on me. It kept me from being myself... or, at least, what I wanted to be. And that kept me from living in - heaven.

- There, do you understand now?

- Cathy, my darling. Let me take care of you forever. Let me guard you and love you always.

- Would you? Would you love me... always?

- Then let's be married. Quickly. Quickly!

- If the Linton home had seemed heaven to me before, I don't know what to call it after she became its mistress.

- The only one who did not seem completely happy was Edgar's sister, Isabella.

Top rated lines from this movie

Ah, so he's lost some of his pride, has he? Well, there's none gone in this house.

The only thing is, I wonder if I belong in heaven. I dreamed once I was there and I broke my heart with weeping to come back to earth, to the bleak moors. And I awoke, sobbing with joy, on top of Wuthering Heights.

You're not as black and horrible as they say. It's just you're full of pain, all twisted inside.

I want to crawl to her feet, whimper to be forgiven for loving her. For needing her more than my own life. For belonging to her more than my own soul.

I forgive you, I forgive you for what you've done. I love you, I love my murderer.
