Jane Austen Quotes
John Knightley Only Was In Mute Astonishment. - That A Man Who Might Have Spent His Evening Quietly At Home After A Day Of Business In London, Should Set Off Again, And Walk Half A Mile To Another Man's House, For The Sake Of Being In Mixed Company Till Bed-time, Of Finishing His Day In The Efforts Of Civility And The Noise Of Numbers, Was A Circumstance To Strike Him Deeply. A Man Who Had Been In Motion Since Eight O'clock In The Morning, And Might Now Have Been Still, Who Had Been Long Talking, And Might Have Been Silent, Who Had Been In More Than One Crowd, And Might Have Been Alone! - Such A Man, To Quit The Tranquillity And Independence Of His Own Fireside, And On The Evening Of A Cold Sleety April Day Rush Out Again Into The World!
