I do not think I ever opened a book in my life which had not something to say upon woman’s inconstancy. Songs and proverbs, all talk of woman’s fickleness. But perhaps you will say, these were all written by men.”
“Perhaps I shall. Yes, yes, if you please, no reference to examples in books. Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything.Persuasion, Jane Austen (via literarylust)

THE ELLIOT COUNTENANCE
“my sore-throats, you know, are always worse than anybody’s.”
i have been feeling quite ill since last night
now to read jane austen’s art of whining for tips
if only i had a sister to manipulate rn, i would do that up so hard
Their dress had every advantage, their faces were rather pretty, their spirits extremely good, their manner unembarrassed and pleasant; they were of consequence at home, and favourites abroad. Anne always contemplated them as some of the happiest creatures of her acquaintance; but still, saved as we all are, by some comfortable feeling of superiority from wishing for the possibility of exchange, she would not have given up her own more elegant and cultivated mind for all their enjoyments; and envied them nothing but that seemingly perfect good understanding and agreement together, that good-humoured mutual affection, of which she had known so little herself with either of her sisters.

When I asked Brits for tips about visiting Lyme, they would be like, “Lyme?…do you mean Lyme Regis?” And I said NO I MEAN LYME BECAUSE JANE AUSTEN AND I DON’T CARE IF IT WAS RENAMED IN THE PAST 200 YEARS
