Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:

Loss of virtue in a female is irretrievable; that one false step involves her in endless ruin; that her reputation is no less brittle than it is beautiful; and that she cannot be too much guarded in her behaviour towards the undeserving of the other sex.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Pride and Prejudice, 1811
Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously.... Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Pride and Prejudice, 1811
I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Pride and Prejudice, 1811

How little of permanent happiness could belong to a couple who were only brought together because their passions were stronger than their virtue.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Pride and Prejudice, 1811
Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance. If the dispositions of the parties are ever so well known to each other or ever so similar beforehand, it does not advance their felicity in the least. They always continue to grow sufficiently unlike afterwards to have their share of vexation; and it is better to know as little as possible of the defects of the person with whom you are to pass your life.: Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Pride and Prejudice, 1811
How soon was it that the dead are brought to deity in the eyes of those who in life found them little regard.: Linda Berdoll, Mr. Darcy Takes A Wife, 2004
Neither enemy faces, nor the mothers that love them, come to mind when one is thinking of nothing but endeavouring to survive. Philosophising about war is useless under fire.: Linda Berdoll, Mr. Darcy Takes A Wife, 2004

Frequency of a tragedy does not diminish the wound when it is your own.: Linda Berdoll, Mr. Darcy Takes A Wife, 2004
It was reassuring to know exactly where one stood. That one stood at the end of the line was not pertinent. At least there was a line in which to subsist.: Linda Berdoll, Mr. Darcy Takes A Wife, 2004
A man's looks are measured by the depth of his pockets.: Elizabeth Aston, Mr. Darcy's Daughters, 2003
