Calleigh's Favourite Jane Austin Quote

My favourite quote out of Jane Austen's books, is probably this one from Emma:

"Mr. Knightley, in fact, was one of the few people who could see faults in Emma Woodhouse, and the only one who ever told her of them."

To me, it's just a perfect picture of my favourite couple's relationship.

Skyeler's Favorite Jane Austen Quote

I have many, but perhaps my all time favorite is spoken by Edmund Bertram.  One of my least favorite heroes.  "I have no pleasure in the world superior to that of contributing to yours."

Elizabeth's Favorite Jane Austin Quotes of All Time

“Her mind was in a state of flutter and wonder, which made it impossible for her to be collected. She was in a dancing, singing, exclaiming spirits; and till she had moved about and talked to herself, and laughed and reflected, she could be fit for nothing rational.” ~Emma

"Your brother is certainly very much to be pitied at present; but we must not, in our concern for his sufferings undervalue yours… You feel, as you always do, what is most to the credit of the human nature."
~Northanger Abbey~ Henry Tilney
