That girl is a grade one a-hole with a severe attitudinal problem.

In the Blue Room, Cora Cash was trying to concentrate on her book. Cora found most novels hard to sympathise with — all those plain governesses — but this one had much to recommend it....

Može li iko upoznati nečiju narav u Batu, ili na kojem drugom javnom mestu… Sve je to ništavno; ne može se tako ništa znati. Samo kada čovek vidi ženu u njenom domu, među njenim prijateljima,...

A little playful banter never hurt — or did it? – Emma

Move over, Emma Woodhouse. You have met your match.

Nije isključeno da čovek može živeti i bez igranja. Poznati su i slučajevi u kojima su mladići i devojke proveli mnoge mesece, a da ni na kakvom balu nisu bili, štaviše, ni duh ni telo...

Hey, beautiful. – Joe Covelli

He wasn’t aware of it but when he smiled he looked like an amiable bear. When he didn’t smile he didn’t look amiable

So many choices and temptations tonight. – Emma

It has sunk him, I cannot say how much it has sunk him in my opinion. So unlike what a man should be!-None of that upright integrity, that strict adherence to truth and principle, that...

No,” said he, smiling, “that is no subject of regret at all. I have no pleasure in seeing my friends, unless I can believe myself fit to be seen.

I lost myself there — my mind imaging what was under his towel and what I would like to do to him. – Emma

There is one thing, Emma, which a man can always do if he chooses, and that is his duty; not by manoeuvring and finessing, but by vigour and resolution. – Mr. Knightley

Einer der Altmeister des englischen Romans, William Makepeace Thackeray, nannte das Wort Finis am Ende eines Erzählwerkes einmal ein “trübsinniges Wort”. Das mag zutreffen, wenn man lediglich meint, von einer liebgewordenen, vertrauten Umgebung Abschied nehmen...

It was more important for me to try, than to not have the chance at all.

I lay it down as a general rule, Harriet, that if a woman doubts as to whether she should accept a man or not, she certainly ought to refuse him.

Or a thousand, if I must. Remember that, Nikki. I’ll be waiting for you to come to me.

I had to sever my emotional cord to escape the anger and shame that silently slithered through my head, disconnecting myself from the stares and whispers that followed me down the hall.

Whom are you going to dance with?’ asked Mr. Knightley.She hesitated a moment and then replied, ‘With you, if you will ask me.’Will you?’ said he, offering his hand.Indeed I will. You have shown that...

Emma is not a person; Emma is a place that you get stuck in; Emma is a pain that you cannot erase.

Good news is, we’re annoying him. Bad news is, we’re all going to die painfully.

Not being liked was so much worse than being invisible.

I don’t approve of surprises. The pleasure is never enhanced and the inconvenience is considerable.

She closed her eyes, not really hearing the rest of what he murmured against her ear. All she knew was that it echoed everything that was in her heart. He was a surprise. Love was...

This one move, this one intense moment has brought out everything that is hidden deep within my soul.

He was a breath of fresh air after the heart wrenching storm that had engulfed me.

Charlotte Palmer is no sillier than Harriet Smith; and yet, how intolerable we should find it to see and hear as much of Charlotte as we do of Harriet! And would Miss Bates have been...

With a new found confidence, Briston comes alive. “Then we have to do something. We need to call the police, or the swat team, maybe the military.””Yeah, and why we’re at it, why don’t we...

I couldn’t believe I let him see me like this, unable to fend for myself. I fumed in disgust at my vulnerability. I didn’t want Evan to think I needed protecting. I pulled back my...

That is the case with us all, papa. One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other.

I am Emma Woodhouse. I feel for her, of her and in her. I have a different sort of snobbism, but I understand her snobbism. Her priggishness. I admire it. I know she does wrong...

I’m leaning toward the second choice. You are both getting way too weird. And gross.”Cal barked out a laugh and slid his fingers down my arm to entwine with mine. His touch, and Emma’s comments,...

Donvel je bio poznat po jagodama, koje su bile izgovor za poziv; ali nikakav izgovor nije bio potreban; ovu damu bi i kupus namamio jer je samo želela da nekuda ide.

You’re Nash’s brother. And a grim reaper?” She blinked again, and I readied myself for hysterics, or fear, or laughter. But knowing emma, I should have known better. “So you, what? Kill people? Did you...
