The magical era of Jane Austen. ( 1775-1817 )
" It is a truth universally acknowledged,
that a single man in possession of a good fortune,
must be in want of a wife. "
" Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings. "
" A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love,
from love to matrimony in a moment. "
" Selfishness must always be forgive you know,
because there is no hope of a cure. "
" A woman, especially if she has the misfortune of knowing anything,
should conceal it as well as she can. "
" How quick come the reasons for approving what we like! "
" It is very difficult for the prosperous to be humble. "
" If things are going untowardly in one month,
they are sure to mend the next. "
" It will, I believe, be everywhere found, that as the clergy are,
or are not what they ought to be, so are the rest of the nation. "
" Where an opinion is general, it is usually correct. "
" To sit in the shade on a fine day
and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment. "
