Quotation from: Emma

Written by: Jane Austen


Emma had no opportunity of speaking to Mr. Knightley till
after supper; but, when they were all in the ballroom again,
her eyes invited him irresistibly to come to her and be thanked.
He was warm in his reprobation of Mr. Elton's conduct; it had been
unpardonable rudeness; and Mrs. Elton's looks also received the due
share of censure.


"They aimed at wounding more than Harriet," said he. "Emma, why
is it that they are your enemies?"
