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:

Heathcliff:

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!
