"...when pain is over, the remembrance of..." - Quote by Jane Austen

“Seldom, very seldom, does complete truth belong to any human disclosure; seldom can it happen that something is not a little disguised, or a little mistaken.”

“Not very good, I am afraid. But now really, do not you think Udolpho the nicest book in the world?" "The nicest—by which I suppose you mean the neatest. That must depend upon the binding.”

“It is the misfortune of poetry, to be seldom safely enjoyed by those who enjoy it completely.”

“Thank you all from the pit of my burning, nauseous stomach for your letters and concern during the past years.”

“We cannot be more sensitive to pleasure without being more sensitive to pain.”

“Love should bring joy, it should grant a person peace, but here and not, it was bringing only pain.”

“We are made happy when reason can discover no occasion for it. The memory of some past moments is more persuasive than the experience of present ones. There have been visions of such breadth and brightness that these motes were invisible in their light.”

“Just as the sand-dunes, heaped one upon another, hide each the first, so in life the former deeds are quickly hidden by those that follow after.”

“In the practical use of our intellect, forgetting is as important as remembering.”
