Quotation from: Sense and Sensibility

Written by: Jane Austen


Elinor would not oppose his opinion, because,
whatever might be her general estimation of the advantage
of a public school, she could not think of Edward's
abode in Mr. Pratt's family, with any satisfaction.


"You reside in Devonshire, I think,"--was his
next observation, "in a cottage near Dawlish."


Elinor set him right as to its situation;
and it seemed rather surprising to him that anybody
could live in Devonshire, without living near Dawlish.
He bestowed his hearty approbation however on their
species of house.
