Quotation from: Emma

Written by: Jane Austen


"You speak too plain. She must understand you."


"I hope she does. I would have her understand me. I am not
in the least ashamed of my meaning."


"But really, I am half ashamed, and wish I had never taken up
the idea."


"I am very glad you did, and that you communicated it to me.
I have now a key to all her odd looks and ways. Leave shame to her.
If she does wrong, she ought to feel it."
