Famous quotes containing the word austen:

    A submissive spirit might be patient, a strong understanding would supply resolution, but here was something more; here was that elasticity of mind, that disposition to be comforted, that power of turning readily from evil to good, and of finding employment which carried her out of herself, which was from Nature alone. It was the choicest gift of heaven.
    —Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    A man would always wish to give a woman a better home than the one he takes her from; and he who can do it, where there is no doubt of her regard, must, I think, be the happiest of mortals.
    —Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    Mrs. Hall, of Sherborne, was brought to bed yesterday of a
    dead child, some weeks before she was expected, owing to a
    fright. I suppose that she happened unawares to look at her
    husband.
    —Jane Austen (1775–1817)
