“I must have a prodigious quantity of mind; it takes me as much as a week sometimes to make it up.”
The Innocents Abroad • Mark Twain“Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance.”
Pride and Prejudice • Jane Austen“I often ardently perceived a longing for relief, the desire for a proper confession, but I also felt in advance that I would be unable to tell and explain things correctly to either my father or mother. I knew that they would receive my words amicably, they would carefully spare my feelings, in fact, pity me, but they wouldn’t fully understand me, and the whole thing would be looked on as a sort of minor infraction, whereas it was actually my fate.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“What man can pretend to know the riddle of a woman's mind?”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“Lawyers are shy of meddling with the Law on their own account: knowing it to be an edged tool of uncertain application, very expensive in the working, and rather remarkable for its properties of close shaving than for its always shaving the right person.”
Old Curiosity Shop • Charles Dickens
