Favorite Jane Austen quotes




Here is a list of some of my favorite quotes or phrases from Jane Austen's books:

For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbours, and laugh at them in our turn?

I am all astonishment!

Are you excessively diverted?

I must have my share in the conversation!

From Captain Wentworth's letter in Persuasion:
"You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope."

I'll have to look up this quote to see if I have it quoted correctly. I also don't know if this is only from the A&E adaptation.
Pardon the intrusion. It was kindly meant.
