Jane Austen Quotes
Miss Bates ... Had Never Boasted Either Beauty Or Cleverness. Her Youth Had Passed Without Distinction, And Her Middle Of Life Was Devoted To The Care Of A Failing Mother, And The Endeavour To Make A Small Income Go As Far As Possible. And Yet She Was A Happy Woman, And A Woman Whom No One Named Without Good-will. It Was Her Own Universal Goodwill And Contented Temper Which Worked Such Wonders. She Loved Every Body, Was Interested In Every Body's Happiness And Quick-sighted To Every Body's Merits; Thought Herself A Most Fortunate Creature, And Surrounded With Blessings In Such An Excellent Mother And So Many Good Neighbours And Friends, And A Home That Wanted For Nothing. The Simplicity And Cheerfulness Of Her Nature, Her Contented And Grateful Spirit, Were A Recommendation To Every Body And A Mine Of Felicity To Herself.
