Kindle Notes & Highlights
When one is in town one amuses oneself. When one is in the country one amuses other people.
It is very romantic to be in love. But there is nothing romantic about a definite proposal.
The very essence of romance is uncertainty. If ever I get married, I’ll certainly try to forget the fact.
The amount of women in London who flirt with their own husbands is perfectly scandalous.
It’s perfectly easy to be cynical.
Miss Fairfax, ever since I met you I have admired you more than any girl . . . I have ever met since . . . I met you.
I wish to goodness we had a few fools left.
As a man sows so let him reap.
If I am occasionally a little over-dressed, I make up for it by being always immensely over-educated.
I am very fond of being looked at.
If it was my business, I wouldn’t talk about it.
In matters of grave importance, style, not sincerity is the vital thing.
If you are not too long, I will wait here for you all my life.
This suspense is terrible. I hope it will last.
