"It has sunk him, I cannot say how much it has sunk him in my opinion. So unlike what a man should be!-None of that upright integrity, that strict adherence to truth and principle, that distain of trick and littleness, which a man should display in every transaction of his life."

"I shall ever despise the man who can be gratified by the passion which he never wished to inspire, nor solicited the avowal of."

Relationship

"I cannot say much for this Monarch's Sense-Nor would I if I could, for he was a Lancastrian. I suppose you know all about the Wars between him and the Duke of York who was on the right side; if you do not, you had better read some other History, for I shall not be very difuse in this, meaning by it only to vent my spleen against, and show my Hatred to all those people whose parties or principles do not suit with mine, and not to give information."

History

"She hoped to be wise and reasonable in time, but alas! Alas! She must confess to herself that she was not wise yet."

Reflection

"Adieu to disappointment and spleen. What are men to rocks and mountains?"

Nature

"I was uncomfortable enough. I was very uncomfortable, I may say unhappy."

Emotion

"Depend upon it you see but half. You see the evil, but you do not see the consolation. There will be little rubs and disappointments everywhere, and we are all apt to expect too much; but then if one scheme of happiness fails, human nature turns to another; if the first calculation is wrong, we make a second better; we find comfort somewhere- and those evil-minded observers, dearest Mary, who make much of a little, are more taken in and deceived than the parties themselves."

Perspective

"That will do extremely well, child. You have delighted us long enough. Let the other young ladies have time to exhibit."
