Quotation from: Pride and Prejudice

Written by: Jane Austen


"And yet I meant to be uncommonly clever in taking so decided
a dislike to him, without any reason. It is such a spur to one's
genius, such an opening for wit, to have a dislike of that kind.
One may be continually abusive without saying anything just; but
one cannot always be laughing at a man without now and then
stumbling on something witty."


"Lizzy, when you first read that letter, I am sure you could not
treat the matter as you do now."
