Austen Lived

Famous quotes containing the words austen and/or lived:

    We are to have a tiny party here tonight; I hate tiny
    parties—they force one into constant exertion.
    —Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    I lived for a long time under vast porticos
    That maritime suns tinted with a thousand fires,
    And whose great pillars, straight and majestuous
    In the evening made seem like basaltic caves.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
