Jane Austen

Open Collage in a new Window

Famous quotes by Jane Austen:

"What wild imaginations one forms where dear self is concerned! How sure to be mistaken!"

"To look almost pretty is an acquisition of higher delight to a girl who has been looking plain for the first fifteen years of her life than a beauty from her cradle can ever receive."

"Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love."

"Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery."

"If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more."

"She was a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper."

"It sometimes happens that a woman is handsomer at twenty-nine than she was ten years before"

"To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment."

"A person who can write a long letter with ease, cannot write ill."

"I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle."

"Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings."

"An engaged woman is always more agreeable than a disengaged. She is satisfied with herself. Her cares are over, and she feels that she may exert all her powers of pleasing without suspicion. All is safe with a lady engaged; no harm can be done."

"Selfishness must always be forgiven you know, because there is no hope of a cure."

"Business, you know, may bring you money, but friendship hardly ever does."

"There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort."

"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."

"We do not look in our great cities for our best morality."

"Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything."

"Next to being married, a girl likes to be crossed in love a little now and then."

"A woman, especially, if she have the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can."

Jane Austen vs Emily Brontë: The Queens of English Literature Debate

Order: Reorder
Duration: 114:04
Updated: 05 Mar 2014

http://www.intelligencesquared.com/events/jane-austen-vs-emily-bronte Filmed at the Royal Geographical Society on 26th February 2014. Jane Austen created the definitive picture of Georgian England -- a landscape of Palladian mansions and handsome parsonages, peopled by rigidly-divided classes. No writer matches Austen's sensitive ear for the hypocrisy and irony lurking beneath the genteel conversation. Never has a novelist written comic prose with such subtlety and restraint. If you want to understand the early 19th century -- the power of money and inheritance, the clothes, the interior décor -- Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice are worth a dozen history books, and any number of second-rate novels by Austen's contemporaries. That's the argument of the Janeites, but to the aficionados of Emily Brontë they are the misguided worshippers of a circumscribed mind. In Wuthering Heights, Brontë dispensed with Austen's niceties and the upper-middle class drawing rooms of Bath and the home counties. Her backdrop is the savage Yorkshire moors, her subject the all-consuming passions of the heart. The story of Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw is a full-blooded tale of violent attraction, thwarted love, death and the supernatural that makes Jane Austen look mundane -- and clutches at the reader's heart with a vigour and directness unmatched in English literature. To help you decide who should be crowned queen of English letters we lined up the best advocates to make the case for each writer. They called on actors, including stars Dominic West and Sam West, to illustrate their arguments with readings from the novels.

On Wednesday, June 18, 2014, a top Iraqi security official said Islamic militants of the al-Qaida-inspired Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant laid siege to Iraq's largest oil refinery late Tuesday night, threatening a facility key to the country's domestic supplies as part of their ongoing lightning offensive across the country. The Beiji refinery accounts for a little more than a quarter of the country's entire refining capacity and any lengthy outage at Beiji risks long lines at the gas pump and electricity shortages, adding to the chaos already facing Iraq.

Sweet Thang - Jonestown

Top Jonestown, Sweet Thang

Hey Lady I've been going crazy,
thinking all the time, you¹re always on my mind.
Hey sugar let¹s not waste no time
let us pour the wine, let¹s set this off right.
Step in my room, cause lady it¹s on,
I¹m in the mood to love you all night long,
cause baby it's on till the brake of the dawn
and I¹ll give you loving till you tell me ³no more².
It's a Sweet Thang
I¹ll give you some of this Sweet Thang
Sweet Thang, it¹s such a Sweet Thang,
sweeter than a Honeydew and you never be the same,
Sweet Thang, my lovin¹ is Sweet Thang.
Now I¹m a show you things you never seen before,
take you shopping at the spot and buy the whole damn
floor,
Christian Dior, Versace by the ounce.
I¹m a buy you things you can¹t even pronounce,
jump in my cream Bentley, girl and let¹s bounce
Dam-Da-Da makes more chedder than you can count or
we can chill if you will and just stay still
out my Masion over looking all of Beverly Hills
outrapanour, player with big boom E-Class Mercedes,
Villa in Can Coon
never hesitate to drop you in the latest thangs,
Crocodile Boots, Armani Suits, know what I mean?
Dive with the willies puffin on Cuban Phillys
laced in Cartagin Silks, now can you feel me?
Tell your girl Friend, who be working,
SKI the Dam-Da-Da you found your Sweet Thang.
I¹ll give you some of this Sweet Thang
Sweet Thang it¹s such a Sweet Thang,
sweeter than a Honeydew and you never be the same,
Sweet Thang, my lovin¹ is Sweet Thang.
Hey lady don¹t wanna waste your time,
just wanna bump and grind, now would that be fine,
hey sugar, Marvin Gaye to set the mood,
I hope that you feel it too, let me show you what to
Step in my room, cause lady it¹s on.
I¹m in the mood to love you all night long,
cause baby it¹s on, till the brake of the dawn
and I¹ll give you lovin till you tell me ³no more²

Famous quotes by Jane Austen:

"What wild imaginations one forms where dear self is concerned! How sure to be mistaken!"

"To look almost pretty is an acquisition of higher delight to a girl who has been looking plain for the first fifteen years of her life than a beauty from her cradle can ever receive."

"Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love."

"Let other pens dwell on guilt and misery."

"If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more."

"She was a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper."

"It sometimes happens that a woman is handsomer at twenty-nine than she was ten years before"

"To sit in the shade on a fine day and look upon verdure is the most perfect refreshment."

"A person who can write a long letter with ease, cannot write ill."

"I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle."

"Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings."

"An engaged woman is always more agreeable than a disengaged. She is satisfied with herself. Her cares are over, and she feels that she may exert all her powers of pleasing without suspicion. All is safe with a lady engaged; no harm can be done."

"Selfishness must always be forgiven you know, because there is no hope of a cure."

"Business, you know, may bring you money, but friendship hardly ever does."

"There is nothing like staying at home for real comfort."

"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."

"We do not look in our great cities for our best morality."

"Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything."

"Next to being married, a girl likes to be crossed in love a little now and then."

"A woman, especially, if she have the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can."
