Relevant Cuotes of Sense and Sensibility


“Sense will always have attractions for me” .  By Elinor Dashwood.



“There´s something so amiable in the prejudices of a young mind, that one is sorry to see them give away to the reception of more general opinions”.  By Coronel Brandon.


“She was stronger alone, and her own good sense so well supported, that her firmness was as unshaken, her appearance of cheerfulness as invariable, as, with regrets so poignant and so fresh, it was possible for them to be”.  Little description of Elinor´s Dashwood Character.

Why have I chosen Sense and Sensibility?

I´ve chosen this Jane Austen´s book because is my opportunity to read the first published novel of her whole work. I find very interesting how the author develops this nineteenth-century story. Another reason that justifies my choice could be the plot. It relates the life and personality of two sisters, emphasizing their points of views about love, family, marriage, and moral values. Finally, I think that I could learn new vocabulary and improve my knowledge about Classic Literature.
