Quote context

[...]

- Heathcliff, is it true? Did you ask Isabella to marry you?

- Oh, you mustn't do this villainous thing.

- She's never harmed you!

- No, but you've harmed me.

- Then punish me!

- And that's what I intend to do.

- I don't understand.

- Every moment I hold her in my arms, when I kiss her, when I promise her life and happiness, you'll be punished.

- You'd marry her to do that?

- Yes! To teach you the ways of pain and the hell that I'm in.

- Oh, you can't. If there's anything human left in you, don't make me a partner to this crime. It's mad! It's stupid!

- If your heart were only stronger than your dull care for the world and its conventions, I'd live silent and content in your shadow, begging for an occasional word or thought as I used to do.

- But now you had to destroy me with that weakness you call virtue. You had to keep me tormented with that cruelty you think so pious.

- How have I been cruel?

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.
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.
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.
I forgive you, I forgive you for what you've done. I love you, I love my murderer.
I killed you. Then haunt me. Be with me always. Take any form you wish. Only don't leave me where I can't find you.
