«But Mr. Heathcliff forms a singular contrast to his abode and style of
living. He is a dark-skinned gypsy in aspect, in dress and manners a
gentleman, that is, as much a gentleman as many a country squire: rather slovenly, perhaps, yet not looking amiss with his negligence, because he has an erect and handsome figure—and rather morose.
Possibly, some people might suspect him of a degree of under-bred pride; I have a sympathetic chord within that tells me it is nothing of the sort: I know, by instinct, his reserve springs from an aversion to showy displays of feeling—to manifestations of mutual kindliness. He’ll love and hate, equally under cover, and esteem it a species of impertinence to be loved or hated again—No, I’m running on too fast—I bestow my own attributes over-liberally on him.»

Quotation 3 - Explanation

Heathcliff is an ambiguous character in the sense that because he is an orphan at first he can be thought as a low class, yet he is fed and raised by a gentleman and respected man. Even the reader cannot decide whether or not he is a lovable person. An attractive side to him gained with the love Catherine and he share gets ruined by something he does or says. This quote contributes to this feature of being in between in him. He is both a “gypsy” and a “gentleman”. The uncertainty of his social condition is mostly pointed out in this quotation.

"It would degrade me to marry Heathcliff now; so he shall never know how I love him; and that, not because he’s handsome, Nelly, but because he’s more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same, and Linton’s is as different as a moonbeam from lightning, or frost from fire.”

Quotation 2 - Explanation

Catherine's conversation with Nelly about her acknowledgment of Edgar's proposal shapes the defining moment of the plot. It is now that Heathcliff leaves Wuthering Heights, after he heard Catherine saying that it would
degrade her to marry him. If we look at the location of the Wuthering Heights it seems to be far a way on lonely moors from the societal norms and values, having much freedom than what could we expect like the free roaming of Catherine and Heathcliff on the moors wouldn’t have been of
more esteem elsewhere. Catherine's choice to wed Edgar Linton to be "the best lady of the area" represents the impact of social norms and values on
the characters' behaviors. We see a self contradictory attitude of Catherine.Though she claims that Heathcliff is more like him and they seems to be same soul but we see that she refuses to marry Heathcliff just because of his social outcast and his social degradation by Heathcliff but at the same time
she refers herself to Edgar Linton as “a moonbeam from lightning, or frost from fire. “ (95) which is quite contradicting in its nature. She knew that frost and fire can’t stay together but yet she marries to Edgar Linton. So keeping relation like this most often result in misery which happens to the characters.

“ The hook was soldered into the staple: a circumstance observed by me when awake, but forgotten. ‘I must stop it, nevertheless!’ I muttered, knocking my knuckles through the glass, and stretching an arm out to seize the importunate branch; instead of which, my fingers closed on the fingers of a little, ice-cold
hand! The intense horror of nightmare came over me: I tried to draw back my arm, but the hand clung to it, and a most melancholy voice sobbed, ‘Let me in let
me in!’ ‘Who are you?’ I asked, struggling, meanwhile, to disengage myself.
‘Catherine Linton,’ it replied, shiveringly (why did I think of LINTON? I had read EARNSHAW twenty times for Linton) ‘I’m come home: I’d lost my way
on the moor!’ As it spoke, I discerned, obscurely, a child’s face looking through the window. Terror made me cruel; and, finding it useless to attempt shaking the
creature off, I pulled its wrist on to the broken pane, and rubbed it to and fro till
the blood ran down and soaked the bedclothes: still it wailed, ‘Let me in!’ and maintained its tenacious gripe, almost maddening me with fear. ”

Quotation 1 - Explanation

It is the first time we see the gothic element: Lockwood comes across
Catherine’s ghost . Catherine’s ghost symbolizes longing for past and hope for Heatcliff as he says “Come in! come in!’ Cathy, do come. Oh, do ONCE more! Oh! my heart’s darling! hear me THIS time, Catherine, at last” (36).
Also his reaction can be explained in two ways:
That nightmare is hope for him, he still believes that she might be alive.
or
He believes in her ghost and wants her to come again. Lockwood claims that he saw and talked to her right after he woke up but this
experience is still explained as nightmare in the book. When we consider Heatcliff’s and Lockwood’s point of view, Ghost’s existence is ambiguous, it is reader’s decisions to make whether the ghost was real or not.

The orphan child whom Mr. Earnshaw takes in as his son. He is perhaps the most confusing characters in the novel. He is Catherine’s true love, a big romantic. He is very gentle when it comes to Cathy. However, he is full of revenge because of her marriage with Edgar. He has a cold-blooded, mean nature, yet it may be related to the way he has been treated as an orphan boy since his childhood. Also the author describes him differently from the other characters in the novel in the aim of this idea of confusion. Heathcliff is actually a represantation of the "Byronic hero" of 19th century novel

Catherine fairly describe him as 'cheerful', 'pleasant to be with' and 'rich' but still he fails to prevent his family from the ruins and destructions brought over by his arch rival Heathclıff. Through his character, Emily Bronte reveals the harsh reality of life that too much tenderness and sweetnees endangers one's survival and self-destruction as this world is full of hunting beasts that would devour one if one gets weakened.
