William Shakespeare
“It is an heretic that makes the fire,
Not she which burns in't.”
William Shakespeare, The Winter's Tale

Charles Dickens
“Old Marley was as dead as a doornail.

Mind! I don't mean to say that, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a doornail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands shall not disturb it, or the Country's done for. You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a doornail.”
Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol

Jane Austen
“Marianne Dashwood was born to an extraordinary fate. She was born to discover the falsehood of her own opinions, and to counteract, by her conduct, her most favourite maxims.”
Jane Austen, Sense and Sensibility

Mark A. Noll
“The scandal of the evangelical mind is that there is not much of an evangelical mind.”
Mark A. Noll

Jane Austen
“Selfishness must always be forgiven you know, because there is no hope of a cure.”
Jane Austen, Mansfield Park
