Heathcliff: Oh Cathy, why did you kill yourself?
Cathy: Hold me. Just hold me. Heathcliff: Oh, and love comfort you. My tears don't love you, Cathy. They blight and curse and damn you! Cathy: Heathcliff, don't break my heart. Heathcliff: Oh Cathy, I never broke your heart. You broke it! Cathy! Cathy! You loved me! What right to throw love away for the poor fancy thing you felt for him, for a handful of worthiness. Misery and death and all the evils that God and man could have ever done would never have parted us. You'd be better alone. You wandered off like a wanton, greedy child to break your heart and mine. |

Heathcliff: Cathy. Don't you talk like that.
Cathy: I will. Go away. This is my room. It's a ladies room. Not a room for servants with dirty hands to come into with their insulting complaints. Now let me alone. Heathcliff: Yes. Yes. Tell the dirty stable boy to let go of you. He soiled your pretty dress. But who soiled your heart? Not Heathcliff. Who turns you into a vain, cheap, worldly fool? Linton does. You'll never love him, but you'll let yourself be loved because it pleases your stupid, greedy vanity. Loved by that milksop with buckles on his shoes... Cathy: Stop it. Stop it and get out. You had your chance to be something else. The people's servant were all you were born to be, a beggar in the center of the road, begging for favors, not earning them but whimpering for them with your dirty hands. |

Cathy: I don't think I belong in Heaven, Ellen. I dreamt once that I was there. I dreamt I went to Heaven, and that Heaven didn't seem to be my home. And I broke my heart with weeping to come back to Earth. And the angels were so angry they flung me out into the middle of the heap, on top of Wuthering Heights. And I woke up sobbing with joy. That's it, Ellen. I have no more business marrying Edgar Linton than I have of being in Heaven. But Ellen, Ellen, what can I do?
Ellen: You're thinking of Heathcliff. Cathy: Who else? He's sunk so low. He seems to take pleasure in being mean and brutal. And yet, he's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same. And Linton's is as different as frost from fire...Ellen, I am Heathcliff. Lightning flashes and strikes and thunder simultaneously rolls behind her, as she realizes her bond with Heathcliff's soul: Everything he's suffered, I've suffered. The little happiness he's ever known I've had too. Oh Ellen, if everything in the world died and Heathcliff remained, life would still be full for me. |

Cathy: You're very grand Heathcliff, so handsome. Looking at you tonight, I could not help but remember how things used to be.
Heathcliff: They used to be better. Cathy: Don't pretend life hasn't improved for you. Heathcliff: Life has ended for me |

![]() Cathy: Oh Heathcliff, if there's anything human left in you, don't do this! Don't make me a partner to such a crime. It's stupid, it's mad! Heathcliff: If you ever looked at me once with what I know is in you, I would be your slave. Cathy, if your heart were only stronger than your dull fear of God and the world, I would live silently contented in your shadow. But no, you must destroy us both with that weakness you call virtue. You must keep me tormented with that cruelty you think so pious. You've been smug and pleased with my vile love of you, haven't you? Haven't you? (Cathy turns to leave) Well, after this, you can think of me as something else than Cathy's foolish and despairing lover. You can think of me as Isabella's husband. (Cathy turns back) And be glad for my happiness as I was for yours. |

Heathcliff: Why isn't there the smell of heather in your hair?
Isabella: Oh Heathcliff, why won't you let me come near you? You're not black and horrible as they all think. You're full of pain. I can make you happy. Let me try. You won't regret it. I'll be your slave. I can bring life back to you, new and fresh. Heathcliff: Why are your eyes always empty? Like Linton's eyes. Isabella: They're not empty, if you'd only look deeper. Look at me. I'm pretty. I'm a woman and I love you. You're all of life to me. Let me be a single breath of it for you. Heathcliff, let your heart look at me just once! Heathcliff: Almighty God, give me life. What is it but hunger and pain? |

Ellen: Oh my wild heart! Miss Cathy. She's gone! She's gone!
Dr. Kenneth: You've done your last black deed, Heathcliff. Leave this house. Edgar: She's at peace now, in Heaven beyond us. Heathcliff: What do they know of Heaven or Hell, Cathy, who know nothing of life? Oh, they're praying for you, Cathy. I'll pray one prayer with them - I repeat 'til my tongue stiffens - Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest so long as I live on! I killed you. Haunt me, then! Haunt your murderer! I know that ghosts have wandered on the Earth. Be with me always. Take any form, drive me mad, only do not leave me in this dark alone where I cannot find you. I cannot live without my life! I cannot die without my soul! |

Story Synopsis:
Heathcliff whines a lot, screws up the lives of four or five people, then mopes around when he realizes everyone's dead. Heathcliff is the most pathetic literary character ever. I'm sorry, but I think Wuthering Heights is the worst book I've ever read. |

The book is much better than the movie... excellant book...
I liked Jane Eyre better though... just because I'm sappy and like the happy endings more. |

From what I can drudge up from my poor decrepit old memory, Wuthering Heights does end quite happily. I thought that was...um, quite important to the book.

Hmmm. It's been so many years since I read it... I thought it had a tragic ending to it. I could be mistaken... all I really remember to that book was how depressing it was as a whole... and how depressed I was after reading it.
I should probably stick to commenting on books that I remember throughly eh? heh. |

yeah i read the book for english just cuz i felt it's one of those books one should read; it's an epic novel i love epic novels like that and like great expectations. yeah. and it does end more or less happily, but the movie i guess for the sake of brevity (i think it was an extremely wise mood on their part; if they had put the other half of the story in there would be no possible way they could have devoted so much time to making it an emotionally effective movie) leaves out sort of the happy part and instedad tries to make the heathcliff/cathy half of the story more or less happy. although i just read billy wilder wanted to end the movie with heathcliff's dead body in the snow but samuel goldwyn the producer insisted on the more optimistic image of their two figures walking away in the snow. yeah. but the book ends with cathy's daughter and earnshaw's son (who plays the role of heathcliff jr) falling in love and living happily ever after. sorta sweet and sappy. oops maybe i shouldn't have told that part although it's sort of obvious eh. yeah. heh heathcliff is one of the most pathetic literary figures evar?? i don't think so. it's amazing because he's so fucking sinister yet you know. like the two of them. the book is much more dark because both cathy and heathcliff are really more or less horrible people yet they love each other so much. the movie tried to make them both less satanic although olivier's heathcliff is still sort of dark and evil. heh what does hareton say in the movie? 'i'll have your gold i'll have your blood and the DEVIL take your soul'. yeah.
but yeah. i think. i mean that's the reason i watched th emovie cuz i'd read the book and i just wanted to compare. and the book was good and as i said epic but when i watched the movie i just bawled myeyes out the whole time. because it devotes more effort to just the love story and it's not as kinky or creepy or whatever. yeah. and heh. that song about david duchovny david duchovny, why don't you love me? american heathcliff, brooding and comely so yeah that's another + aspect to the movie. ******ce olivier is the most gorgeous man god ever invented. |
