In such moments of precious, invaluable misery, she rejoiced in tears of agony...

Par Jane Austen

To wish was to hope, and to hope was to expect

Par Jane Austen

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.

Par Jane Austen

I come here with no expectations, only to profess, now that I am at liberty to do so, that my heart is and always will be...yours.

Par Jane Austen

Had I been in love, I could not have been more wretchedly blind. But vanity, not love, has been my folly.

Par Jane Austen

There is no charm equal to tenderness of heart.

Par Jane Austen

Oh, Lizzy! do anything rather than marry without affection.

Par Jane Austen

There could have been no two hearts so open, no tastes so similar, no feelings so in unison

Par Jane Austen

If I could but know his heart, everything would become easy.

Par Jane Austen

The more I know of the world, the more I am convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love. I require so much!

Par Jane Austen

In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.

Par Jane Austen

A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.

Par Jane Austen

Business, you know, may bring money, but friendship hardly ever does.

Par Jane Austen

Which of all my important nothings shall I tell you first?

Par Jane Austen

There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.

Par Jane Austen
