Answer:

These lines are quoted from the play "Cyrano de Bergerac" and said by the main protagonist Cyrano de Bergerac, addressed to Busybody.

Explanation:

These lines are from the play "Cyrano de Bergerac" by Edmond Rostand. It revolves around the hidden love story of the protagonist Cyrano for his cousin Roxane. But it did not have a happy ending nor is it a happy love story but rather a tragic story of hidden love.

The lines are said by Cyrano about his nose in Scene I. iv. He has a huge nose which prevents him from being confident and openly proclaiming his feelings for Roxane. Here, he is seen proudly boasting in front of everyone that his nose is better than anyone's, that "<em>a fine nose is the unfailing mark of a fine man, witty, good-natured, brave,/ Courteous and forgiving</em>." But in reality, he was conscious about it and thus had to hide his feelings for Roxane too.

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Emily Bronte succeeded in ending <em>Wuthering Heights </em>with the message that love overcomes hate by the union of Hareton and young Catherine after the enormous hate they received from Heathcliff.

Explanation:

In <em>Wuthering Heights, </em>Emily Bronte the author writes a tale about largely unlikable persons that are caught up in an obsessive love that turns to dark madness. The novel is cruel, violent, dark, brooding and some readers find it unpleasant.

The novel is about Heathcliff and Catherine and the deep love they have for each other. Heathcliff is love-struck by Catherine and can not bear to be away from her although he has a strong personality that shows he can bear almost anything, except that. Catherine is Heathcliff's foster sister.

Unfortunately, Catherine betrays his love by getting married to Edgar Linton because of the pressures of social convention. Heathcliff leaves the area and comes back after three years after Catherine's marriage and he vows revenge on all who wronged him.

He lends Hindley money that he knows he cannot pay back and as a result inherits the manor then he marries Isabella Linton and treats her cruelly. Heathcliff has a son Hareton and Catherine has a daughter who was named after her and after Heathcliff dies, they both get married.
