Great Expectations Quote Response

“When you say you love me, I know what you mean, as a form of words; but nothing more. You address nothing in my breast, you touch nothing there.”(Addressing Pip, from Estella.) This is Miss Havisham’s work of vengeance. This is the creature she made with her hate. Estella is not a human being anymore, rather an entity of Miss Havisham’s anger, with no heart and no emotions other than hate and malice. Estella truly lost her humanity when she lost the ability to love, rather becoming a demonic embodiment of another’s spite. The simple reason why Estella had no heart is because of Miss Havisham’s grudge. When one loses the ability to forgive, their evil can grow so strong as to taint others, creating an impenetrable blackness within their soul, pierceable by only one light, what they rejected in the first place: forgiveness.
