Emma
“‘Men of sense, whatever you may choose to say, do not want silly wives.’”
Mansfield Park
“But there certainly are not so many men of large fortune in the world as there are pretty women to deserve them.”
Northanger Abbey
“The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.”
Persuasion
“Her spirits wanted the solitude and silence which only numbers could give.”
Pride and Prejudice
“‘…you could be neither happy nor respectable, unless you truly esteemed your husband; unless you looked up to him as a superior.’”
Sense and Sensibility
“...Elinor was the only one of the three, who seemed to consider the separation as anything short of eternal.”
Farewell Jane Austen, it has been a marvelous year!
-Victoria
