The truth is rarely pure and never simple. Modern life would be very tedious if it were either, and modern literature a complete impossibility! Oscar Wilde The importance of Being Earnest, 1895

Some Austenisms

"I do not want people to be agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them". "Where so many hours have been spent in convincing myself that I am right, is there not some reason to fear I may be wrong?". "There are certainly not so many men of large fortune in the world as there are pretty women to deserve them". Jane Austen
