There certainly was some great mismanagement in the education of those two young men. One has got all the goodness, and the other all the appearance of it.

I am determined that only the deepest love will induce me into matrimony. So... I shall end an old maid, and teach your ten children to embroider cushions and play their instruments very ill.

I cannot help thinking that it is more natural to have flowers grow out of the head than fruit.

Have you any other objection than your belief of my indifference?" - Elizabeth Bennet

She is tolerable, but not handsome enough to tempt me, and I am in no humor at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Fanny! You are killing me!" "...

Yes," replied Darcy, who could contain himself no longer, "but that was when I first knew her; for it is many months since I have considered her as one of the handsomest women of my acquaintance.

Her family had of late been exceedingly fluctuating. For many years of her life she had had two sons; but the crime and annihilation of Edward a few weeks ago, had robbed her of one; the similar annihilation of Robert had left her for a fortnight without any; and now, by the resurrection of Edward, she had one again.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

We certainly do not forget yo...

We certainly do not forget you as soon as you forget us. It is, perhaps, our fate rather than our merit. We cannot help ourselves. We live at home, quiet, confined, and our feelings prey upon us. You are forced on exertion. You have always a profession, pursuits, business of some sort or other, to take you back into the world immediately, and continual occupation and change soon weaken impressions.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

She tried to be calm, and lea...

She tried to be calm, and leave things to take their course; and tried to dwell much on this argument of rational dependence – “Surely, if there be constant attachment on each side, our hearts must understand each other ere long. We are not boy and girl, to be captiously irritable, misled by every moment’s inadvertence, and wantonly playing with our own happiness.” And yet, a few minutes afterwards, she felt as if their being in company with each other, under their present circumstances, could only be exposing them to inadvertencies and misconstructions of the most mischievous kind.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Provided that nothing like us...

Provided that nothing like useful knowledge could be gained from them, provided they were all story and no reflection, she had never any objection to books at all.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

I wrote without much effort; ...

I wrote without much effort; for I was rich, and the rich are always respectable, whatever be their style of writing.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Mr. Knightley, if I have not ...

Mr. Knightley, if I have not spoken, it is because I am afraid I will awaken myself from this dream.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

What! Would I be turned back ...

What! Would I be turned back from doing a thing that I had determined to do, and that I knew to be right, by the airs and interference of such a person, or any person I may say? No, I have no idea of being so easily persuaded. When I have made up my mind, I have made it.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

There was no being displeased with such an encourager, for his admiration made him discern a likeness before it was possible.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Her mind was all disorder. The past, present, future, every thing was terrible.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Your countenance perfectly in...

Your countenance perfectly informs me that you were in company last night with the person, whom you think the most agreeable in the world, the person who interests you at this present time, more than all the rest of the world put together.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

To be claimed as a good, thou...

To be claimed as a good, though in an improper style, is at least better than being rejected as no good at all.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

there is not the least wit in my nature. I am a very matter of fact, plain spoken being, and may blunder on the borders of a repartee for half an hour together without striking it out.

An egg boiled very soft is not unwholesome.
