One cannot know what a man really is by the end of a fortnight.
When I fall in love, it will be forever.
You are very kind in planning presents for me to make, and my mother has shown me exactly the same attention; but as I do not choose to have generosity dictated to me, I shall not resolve on giving my cabinet to Anna till the first thought of it has been my own.
I have never yet known what it was to separate esteem from love
What wild imaginations one forms where dear self is concerned! How sure to be mistaken!
I wish, as well as everybody else, to be perfectly happy; but, like everybody else, it must be in my own way.
