― Margaret Mitchell, Gone with the Wind

“The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.”
― Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

“Courage isn't having the strength to go on - it is going on when you don't have strength.”
― Napoleon Bonaparte

“I hate to hear you talk about all women as if they were fine ladies instead of rational creatures. None of us want to be in calm waters all our lives.”
