Jane Austen

I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.  
-Jane Austen

My sore throats are always worse than anyone's. 
-Jane Austen

 
I love how gently sarcastic Jane Austen is. I like to think that we would have been friends if time and space had thrown us together.
And what is a collection of authors without her? She has such a sweet and girlish profile. A nice little change after all those beards.

  1. I agree! I love how she said "her sore throats are always worse than anyone's", because I have thought those very words.
