"You loved me, so what gave you the right to leave me? Why did you answer my questions if it was only because of your fleeting feelings for Linton? Despite everything, including misery, degradation, and death, nothing could separate us unless you chose to do so." Heathcliff expresses feelings of betrayal and pain, emphasizing that it was his partner’s own decision to end their relationship, not his own actions that caused the separation.

"I haven’t broken your heart; you have broken mine. In doing so, you have also broken yourself." Heathcliff reflects on the pain of loss, asserting that he is the victim of the heartbreak, and the act of betrayal has also damaged the other person. The pain is mutual, yet he feels the true blame lies with his partner who chose to leave."
