Jane Austen

I have just been reading a very clever book, which I think is very witty.

I am not at all a lover of fine speeches.

I have been so much delighted with this book, that I have read it through twice.

I am not at all a lover of solitude.

I am not at all disposed to be sentimental.

I have just been informed that I am to be an aunt.

I am not at all disposed to be romantic.

I have been so much entertained with this letter, that I have read it over and over again.

I have just been reading a novel which I think is very pretty, but which I do not like at all.

I am not at all disposed to be very discreet.

I am not at all in a humour for writing; I must write on until I am.

I do not want to be a man. I wish to be a woman, and to be as agreeable as a woman can be.

I have been so much amused by the present style of female dress, that I am determined to have some of the most ridiculous of my own.

I am in a humour to abuse everybody and everything.

I do not think I ever was in a more disgraceful state. I am quite ashamed of myself.

I am not at all in a humour for writing, I am tired of it.

I am very fond of Bath. I think it is the best place in the world for a woman to be in who wants to be married.

I have not patience with the men, they are such fools!

I am quite determined to be very impertinent.

I do not like to be told that I am an object of compassion.
