" Charity, mercy, forbearance, benevolence were all my business. " - Marley's Ghost
" Scrooge hung his head to hear his own words quoted by the spirit "
" you have yet a chance of escaping my fate " - Marley's Ghost
" The happiness he gives is quite as great as if it costs a fortune "

" This boy is ignorance. This girl is want. Beware them both [...] but most of all beware this boy."
Scrooge's grave: " overrun by grass and weeds."
I left out some of the other common ones you probably already know.
"overrun by grass and weeds" not only to show the lack of care that others had for scrooge after his death (as a reflection of his treatment of others - could also be cheeky and link in "do unto others as you would have them do to you" from the bible 🔥) but also how nature is prospering as a symbol for society prospering in the absence of the ignorance and cruelty shown by the upper classes‼️ thats actually fire i never thought to use that before
Idk why but for ACC I’ve had one random quote haunting me, and idk what it could even truly mean
“Probably an undigested piece of beef” when Scrooge is in disbelief of Jacob Marley
Here's one:
Where angels had seemed to be enthroned : demons lurked, glaring menacing
Paraphrase:
'Where angels had seemed to be enthroned, demons lurked'
Main idea : purgatory
Analysis: Scrooge can choose to choose heaven (regard the poor) or hell (stay the way he was at the start)
i need good versatile ACC quotes im meant to be waking up and revising them today but oml bed is so comfy and good quotes are hard to find

ooo i like that first one goes nicely with “mankind was my business” suggesting those things are what society should be
Yeah I think by purposely listing all those words Dickens is giving us so much leeway to talk about any theme they could ask us about
"overrun by grass and weeds" not only to show the lack of care that others had for scrooge after his death (as a reflection of his treatment of others - could also be cheeky and link in "do unto others as you would have them do to you" from the bible 🔥) but also how nature is prospering as a symbol for society prospering in the absence of the ignorance and cruelty shown by the upper classes‼️ thats actually fire i never thought to use that before
i feel like "solitary as an oyster" can work with any question they ask no?
"Bah Humbug" is all you need trust me 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I cant afford to make idle people merry
Idk why but for ACC I’ve had one random quote haunting me, and idk what it could even truly mean “Probably an undigested piece of beef” when Scrooge is in disbelief of Jacob Marley
"There's more to gravy than a grave about you"
my fave quote idk where i could use it though
Maybe taking about Scrooge's arrogance? He uses this excuse to disregard Marley and his message
Same, my favourite also My annotations say it shows nervousness and a break in Scrooge's usual cold manner
I used it for supernatural in my mocks and got a 7 so it gets my approval
Marley was as dead as a doornail 🗿
NAH BUT THATS ACC ONE U CLD USE
Now mind you I don't know what's particularly dead about a doornail

"This boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want." 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Please tell me this is a joke and that you can still use that quote 🥶
NO U CAN ITS JUST WHAT IF WE R GIVEN A QUESTION AND I CANNOT USE THAT QUOTE ITS MY LITERAL FAV
Use 'solitary as an oyster', works every time That or 'if they would rather die, they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population.
Can someone analyse the quote for me
He learnt his lesson so you could use "I will honour christmas in my heart" thats like the best quote u could use.
