A Bit Of Thought Diversion.

The fabulous Jane Austen is still relevant centuries later.

" A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment. "
Pride and Prejudice
" I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal. "
Jane Austen's letters
" Laugh as much as you choose, but you will not laugh me out of my opinion. "
Pride and Prejudice
" Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings."
Mansfield Park
" A woman, especially if she has the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can. "
Jane Austen
" Better be without sense than misapply it as you do. "
Emma
" No man is offended by another man's admiration of the woman he loves; it is the woman only who can make it a torment. "
Northanger Abbey
" Selfishness must always be forgiven you know, because there is no hope of a cure. "
Mansfield Park
" Men were put into the world to teach women the law of compromise. "
Jane Austen
" Her own thoughts and reflections were habitually her best companions. "
Mansfield Park
