Love one another, but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope.
JA Jane AustenNovelist · 1775–1817Wat dit citaat betekent
Austen captures love's mix of pain and longing — the ache of hoping for someone when you are not yet sure of them.
Context
English novelist whose sharp, warm observations of love and society still feel astonishingly modern.
This line is among the quotes by Jane Austen that readers return to on liefde, drawn from Persuasion — a small, portable reminder to carry into the morning.
