Quotes

  • It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
  • I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine.
  • Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.
  • No one can be really esteemed who does not greatly value his own respect.
