Quotation from: Sense and Sensibility

Written by: Jane Austen


"I do not understand what you mean by interrupting them,"
said Elinor; "you were all in the same room together,
were not you?"


"No, indeed, not us. La! Miss Dashwood, do you
think people make love when any body else is by? Oh,
for shame!--To be sure you must know better than that.
(Laughing affectedly.)--No, no; they were shut up in the
drawing-room together, and all I heard was only by listening
at the door."
