QUOTATION 3 : "But, happy Sissy's happy children loving her; all children loving her; she, grown learned in childish lore; thinking no innocent and pretty fancy ever to be despised; trying hard to know her humbler fellow-creatures, and to beautify their lives of machinery and reality with those imaginative graces and delights, without which the heart of infancy will wither up, the sturdiest physical manhood will be morally stark death, and the plainest national prosperity figures can show, will be the Writing on the Wall, - she holding this course as part of no fantastic vow, or bond, or brotherhood, or sisterhood, or pledge, or covenant, or fancy dress, or fancy fair; but simply as a duty to be done"

�This quotation is at the end of the novel. Sissy was a happy child and even though Mr. Grandgrind’s facts ,she never leaves imagination and joy. She is not only interested in the facts but also she adds the imagination to reality. On the other hand, Sissy and Louisa raised with together but Sissy is more compassionate but Louisa is apathetic so Sissy is someone who acts with emotions and tries to spread this behavior around her. Sissy doesn't act like a numb robot and resists it. Finally, she believes that being happy starts from the childhood and wants to touch the world of children.

QUOTATION 2 : "It was a fundamental principle of the Gradgrind philosophy that everything was to be paid for. Nobody was ever on any account to give anybody anything, or render anybody help without purchase. Gratitude was to be abolished, and the virtues springing from it were not to be. Every inch of the existence of mankind, from birth to death, was to be a bargain across a counter. And if we didn't get to Heaven that way, it was not a politico-economical place, and we had no business there"

�Mr. Grandgrind sees life in a materialistic way. He has not got moral values like gratitude, belief and goodness. He only cares about Money and politics. He even rejects the idea of going to heaven if there is no politics and economy. He thinks that human beings can survive  by only using their logical sides  .If something is plausible, it is enough. There is no need to add imagination or intangible things.

QUOTATION 1: 'Some persons hold,' he pursued, still hesitating, 'that there is a wisdom of the Head, and that there is a wisdom of the Heart. I have not supposed so; but, as I have said, I mistrust myself now. I have supposed the head to be all-sufficient. It may not be all- sufficient; how can I venture this morning to say it is! If that other kind of wisdom should be what I have neglected, and should be the instinct that is wanted, Louisa'

This quatation said by Mr. Gradgrind to Louisa. Mr. Grandgrind comes to a realization. He notices that his education ‘system’ is not perfect. Teaching ‘the facts’ is not enough in life. Mr. Gradgrind regrets and confirms that he choose the wrong way. He thinks that if he did not ignore the instinct, her daughter would be happier. The facts do not give  trust for him and he can understand what is important in life which is life is a harmony of the ‘Head’ and the ‘Heart’.
