Charlotte Bronte Quote.. What do you think please........A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow!?

Answer 1

That is so totally true...  some things never change

Answer 2

Great, but I prefer.....

LIFE, believe, is not a dream

So dark as sages say;

Oft a little morning rain

Foretells a pleasant day.

Sometimes there are clouds of gloom,

But these are transient all;

If the shower will make the roses bloom,

O why lament its fall?

Rapidly, merrily,

Life's sunny hours flit by,

Gratefully, cheerily

Enjoy them as they fly!

What though Death at times steps in,

And calls our Best away?

What though sorrow seems to win,

O'er hope, a heavy sway?

Yet Hope again elastic springs,

Unconquered, though she fell;

Still buoyant are her golden wings,

Still strong to bear us well.

Manfully, fearlessly,

The day of trial bear,

For gloriously, victoriously,

Can courage quell despair!

It means that if the mind is troubled and worried then all those thoughts are likely to cause a very restless sleep, causing the worrier to lay their head on the pillow and toss and turn instead of relaxing into a good nights rest.
