Obviously I have been negligent in my blog duties... this happens... a lot... with almost everything I do or start, but I always end up getting there. However we can talk about my commitment issues and faults later right now I would rather talk about Emma, an amazing book written by the one and only Jane Austen. Emma is my favorite book, while I love almost every book I've read Emma is my absolute favorite. And as has been my fashion over my last... three posts... well 2/3 posts I am going to quote some of my favorite sayings from Emma.
A few sentiments on luck and love:
"And have you never known the pleasure and triumph of a lucky guess? I pity you. I thought you cleverer; for depend upon it, a lucky guess is never merely luck."
"... but that I suppose there may be a hundred different ways of being in love."
"I am quite enough in love. I should be sorry to be more."
Now while the last may seem a bit cold if you knew what part of the story it was from you would understand and completely admire what was said and the way it was said. Anyways if I were to quote the anything from the end of the book it would be hard not to put whole paragraphs or pages up, sometimes its not the words that make the quote but the words around the quote that give it its meaning.
Well that is all for now - I promise to try and stay on top of this... key word TRY :)
