Romance Quote by Jane Austen — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I have been used to consider poetry as the food of love”

“…one half of her should not be always so much wiser than the other half…”

“I have been used to consider poetry as the food of love.”

“I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.”

“It is happy for you that you possess the talent of flattering with delicacy. May I ask whether these pleasing attentions proceed from the impulse of the moment, or are they the result of previous study?”

“Oh!" cried Anne eagerly, "I hope I do justice to all that is felt by you,”

“The paradox of love is that to have it is to want to preserve it because it's perfect in the moment but that preservation is impossible because the perfection is only ever an instant passed through. Love like travel is a series of moments that we immediately leave behind. Still we try to hold on and embalm against all evidence and common sense proclaiming our promises and plans. The more I loved him the more I felt hope. But hope acknowledges uncertainty and so I also felt my first premonitions of loss.”

“She's magic, Cassandra. A single flower blooming in an endless desert.”

“I want to be part of your story. I want your story to rearrange the symbols in my mind. I want your voice to be my voice.”

“My heart skipped a beat. Then another one. And then one more. Until no air was getting in or out and I could tell my heart had stopped beating completely. For the longest of moments, I remained suspended in time, thinking I’d never bounce back from this because my heart was not functioning anymore, but hey, if those were the parting words I had to leave this earth with, then I’d be happy.”

“Ada seseorang dalam hidupmu yang ketika ia pergi, maka ia juga membawa sepotong hatimu.”
