Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pound ought and six, result misery.
A word in earnest is as good as a speech.
Injustice breeds injustice
Accidents will occur in the best regulated families
No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another
Reflect on your present blessings, of which every man has many; not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some
The sun does not shine upon this fair earth to meet frowning eyes, depend upon it.
Treachery don't come natural to beaming youth; but trust and pity, love and constancy,--they do, thank God!

Charles Dickens: Australian Connections
Dixson Library, University of New England, Armidale New South Wales, Australia
Mon, 6th February 2012 - Sun, 29th April 2012
This exhibition portrays some of the Australian connections in Dickens’s life and writing through books, photographs and illustrations. It was through his weekly journals, 'Household words' (1850–1859) and 'All the year round' (1859–1895), that readers in England were introduced to Australia. From the very first issue, promoting Caroline Chisholm’s Family Colonisation Loan Society, Dickens portrayed Australia as a place for a new start and prosperous life. Letters home to England and articles by visitors and emigrants told of the ease of finding a friendly English neighbour, the generous and simple hospitality of people in the Bush and the ever present chance for success. Dickens sent two of his sons to Australia, it was his country of choice for the emigrating residents of the ‘penitent women’s’ home he managed, and many of his characters – Abel Magwitch, Wilkins Micawber and Emily and Daniel Peggoty – did find a new life in the Colony. The exhibition is curated by Ian Stephenson, University Curator, and Michelle Arens, UNE Art Collection Manager, with special assistance from J.S. Ryan, Professor of Folklore and Heritage with UNE Heritage Futures Research Centre. It is on display in Dixson Library from February through April 2012.
