Quotation from: Sense and Sensibility

Written by: Jane Austen


"Strange that it would!" cried Marianne. "What have
wealth or grandeur to do with happiness?"


"Grandeur has but little," said Elinor, "but wealth
has much to do with it."


"Elinor, for shame!" said Marianne, "money can only
give happiness where there is nothing else to give it.
Beyond a competence, it can afford no real satisfaction,
as far as mere self is concerned."
