He is a gentleman; I am a gentleman's daughter; so far we are equal.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Such a letter was not to be s...

Such a letter was not to be soon recovered from. . . . Every moment rather brought fresh agitation. It was an overpowering happiness.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Wisdom is better than wit, and in the long run will certainly have the laugh on her side.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies do divert me, I own, and I laugh at them whenever I can.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

I am now convinced that I have never been much in love; for had I really experienced that pure and elevating passion, I should at present detest his very name, and wish him all manner of evil. But my feelings are not only cordial towards him; they are even impartial towards her. I cannot find out that I hate her at all, or that I am in the least unwilling to think her a very good sort of girl. There can be no love in all this.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

I am only resolved to act in that manner, which will, in my own opinion, constitute my happiness, without reference to you, or to any person so wholly unconnected with me.

One cannot have too large a party. A large party secures its own amusement.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

The evergreen! How beautiful...

The evergreen! How beautiful, how welcome, how wonderful the evergreen! When one thinks of it, how astonishing a variety of nature! In some countries we know that the tree that sheds its leaf is the variety, but that does not make it less amazing, that the same soil and the same sun should nurture plants differing in the first rule and law of their existence.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

I never could be so happy as ...

I never could be so happy as you. Till I have your disposition, your goodness, I never can have your happiness.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

When I look out on such a nig...

When I look out on such a night as this, I feel as if there could be neither wickedness nor sorrow in the world; and there certainly would be less of both if the sublimity of Nature were more attended to, and people were carried more out of themselves by contemplating such a scene.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

You were disgusted with the women who were always speaking and looking, and thinking for your approbation alone. I roused, and interested you, because I was so unlike them.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

You ought certainly to forgive them as a Christian, but never to admit them in your sight, or allow their names to be mentioned in your hearing.

Business, you know, may bring money, but friendship hardly ever does.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

We live at home, quiet, confined, and our feelings prey upon us.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Know your own happiness....

Know your own happiness.

I do not find it easy to talk to people I don't know.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Maybe it's that I find it hard to forgive the follies and vices of others, or their offenses against me. My good opinion, once lost, is lost forever.

Jane Austen 870 quotes

Let other pens dwell on guilt ...

Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery. I quit such odious subjects as soon as I can, impatient to restore everybody not greatly in fault themselves to tolerable comfort, and to have done with all the rest.

Trusting that you will some time or other do me greater justice than you can do now.
