How clever you are, to know something of which you are ignorant.

One likes to hear what is to be going on, to be au fair with the newest modes of being trifling and silly.

I wonder who first discovered the efficacy of poetry in driving away love!- Elizabeth Bennet

When I fall in love, it will be forever.

I never could be so happy as you. Till I have your disposition, your goodness, I never can have your happiness.

I cannot make speeches, Emma...If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more. But you know what I am. You hear nothing but truth from me. I have blamed you, and lectured you, and you have borne it as no other woman in England would have borne it.

It is very often nothing but our own vanity that deceives us.
