"Why not seize the pleasure at once? How often is happiness destroyed by preparation foolish preparation!"
Happiness
"Marianne had now been brought by degrees, so much into the habit of going out every day, that it was become a matter of indifference to her, whether she went or not: and she prepared quietly and mechanically for every evening's engagement, though without expecting the smallest amusement from any, and very often without knowing, till the last moment, where it was to take her."
Behavior

Spiritual
"If, however, I am allowed to think that you and yours feel an interest in my fate and actions, it may be the means-it may put me on my guard-at least, it may be something to live for."

Love

Ethics

Society

Emotion
"I am no indiscriminate novel reader. The mere trash of the common circulating library I hold in the highest contempt."
