Sophia’s Notes & Highlights

Persuasion by Jane Austen

2 highlights

Now they were as strangers; nay, worse than strangers, for they could never become acquainted. It was a perpetual estrangement.

“Love felt and returned, love which our bodies exact and our hearts have transfigured, love which is the most real thing that we shall ever meet, reappeared now as the world's enemy, and she must stifle it.”
― E.M. Forster, A Room with a View

“Maybe I’ll post a consumer review. “Brought product to surface of Mars. It stopped working. 0/10.”
― Andy Weir, The Martian

“Living with you will be like
aiming for a moving target; you'll always be further along than I expect.”
― Ted Chiang, Stories of Your Life and Others

“It's too hard to explain. I can't say why I love the book. I just do. You don't pick the books you fall in love with any more than you pick the people you fall in love with. It just happens, and when it happens, you know. Who's to say where love comes from?”
― Sarah Combs, Breakfast Served Anytime

“I guess what I'm trying to say is that sometimes you can love a book not so much because of what it's about or what happens in it, but because it belongs to a certain time or person in your life- like you'll always remember where you were when you read it for the first time, or who gave it to you, or what season it was, or who you were before you read it and how you were different when it was over”
― Sarah Combs, Breakfast Served Anytime
