Every man is surrounded by a neighborhood of voluntary spies. - Jane Austen

There are very few who have heart enough to be really in love without encouragement

I am very much obliged to my dear little George for his message - for his love at least; his duty, I suppose, was only in consequence of some hint of my favorable intentions towards him from his father or mother. I am sincerely rejoiced, however, that I ever was born, since it has been the means of procuring him a dish of tea.

it will, I believe, be everywhere found, that as the clergy are, or are not what they ought to be, so are the rest of the nation.
