If I could but know his heart everything would become easy.

I cannot fix on the hour or the spot or the look or the words which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.

In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.

The more I know of the world the more I am convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love. I require so much

A ladys imagination is very rapid it jumps from admiration to love from love to matrimony in a moment.

There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves it is not my nature.
