Sense and Sensibility ~ Jane Austen
It isn’t what we say or think that defines us, but what we do.
Know your own happiness. You want nothing but patience—or give it a more fascinating name: call it hope.
I wish, as well as everybody else, to be perfectly happy; but, like everybody else, it must be in my own way.
The more I know of the world, the more I am convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love.
