“Walter Scott has no business to write novels, especially good ones. 鈥� It is not fair. 鈥� He has fame and profit enough as a poet, and should not be taking the bread out of other people鈥檚 mouths. 鈥� I do not like him, and do not mean to like Waverley if I can help it 鈥� but fear I must.”
― Jane Austen, Jane Austen's Letters

“A lover persevere in his suit under very discouraging circumstances. Affection can withstand very severe storms of rigor, but no a long polar frost of downright indifference. Don鈥檛, even with your attractions, try the experiment upon any lover whose faith you value. Love will subsist on wonderfully little hope, but no altogether without it.”
― Walter Scott

“Thou are boot for many a bruise,
And healest many a wound;
In our Lady's blessed name,
I take thee from the ground.”
― Sir Walter Scott
