“She liked him too little to care for his approbation.”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“Não lhe bastava ser casada entre quatro paredes e algumas árvores; precisava do resto do mundo, também. E quando eu me vi embaixo, pisando as ruas com ela, parando, olhando, falando, senti a mesma coisa. Inventava passeios para que me vissem, me confirmassem e me invejassem.”
― Machado de Assis, Dom Casmurro

“It was gratifying to have inspired unconsciously so strong an affection.”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
― William Shakespeare, Macbeth
