Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfort- able home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years with very little to distress or vex her. - Emma, Jane Austen | "Oh," cried Marianne, "with what transporting sensation have I formerly seen them fall! How have I delighted, as I walked, to see them driven in showers about me by the wind! What feelings have they, the season, the air inspired!" - Sense and Sensibility, Jane Austen | "Not keep a journal! My dear madam, I am not so ignorant of young ladies' ways as you wish to believe me; it is this habit of journaling which contributes to form the easy style of writing for which ladies are so celebrated." - Northanger Abbey, Jane Austen |
