“Such I was, from eight to eight and twenty; and such I might still have been but for you, dearest, loveliest Elizabeth! What do I not owe you! You taught me a lesson, hard indeed at first, but most advantageous. By you, I was properly humbled. I came to you without a doubt of my reception. You shewed me how insufficient were all my pretensions to please a woman worthy of being pleased.”

“You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it(…). Dare not say that a man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death. I have loved none but you. Unjust I may have been, weak and resentful I have been, but never inconstant.”
Jane Austen, Persuasion

Quote reblogged from goddamnit paper cutIn Mary, Fellowes and Dockery have combined to create one of the most captivating female characters on TV: an independently minded, strategic thinker who’s keenly aware of her position and her obligations, even as her spirit bucks against them; a woman who can be coldly haughty and compassionate; a Lady who will give as good as she gets when she decides to play dirty. Dockery’s evocation of the passions roiling beneath Mary’s polished surface make her utterly compelling.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN HAPPILY EVER AFTER?
In fiction, yes. But not in real life, in the way I think you mean it. Happiness is one of the most important things in life but happiness is something you have to find in yourself — being who you are and accepting who you are — and no one can do that for you. I feel I’ve got to that stage, of being comfortable in my own skin. — Michelle Dockery

Quote reblogged from You're strong. A storm braver if ever I saw one.Blimey, I hope they escaped,” said Ron, leaning back on his pillows. The tea seemed to be doing him good; a little of his colour has returned. “I didn’t get the feeling Reg Cattermole was all that quick-witted, though, the way everyone was talking to me when I was him. God, I hope they made it… if they both end up in Azkaban because of us…”
Harry looked over at Hermione and the question he had been about to ask — about whether Mrs Cattermole’s lack of a wand would prevent her Apparating alongside her husband — died in his throat. Hermione was watching Ron fret over the fate of the Cattermoles, and there was such tenderness in her expression that Harry felt almost as if he had surprised her in the act of kissing him.Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling (p. 226; UK Edition)(Source: w-interwinds)

Quote reblogged from You're strong. A storm braver if ever I saw one.This sentence has five words. Here are five more words. Five-word sentences are fine. But several together become monotonous. Listen to what is happening. The writing is getting boring. The sound of it drones. It’s like a stuck record. The ear demands some variety. Now listen. I vary the sentence length, and I create music. Music. The writing sings. It has a pleasant rhythm, a lilt, a harmony. I use short sentences. And I use sentences of medium length. And sometimes, when I am certain the reader is rested, I will engage him with a sentence of considerable length, a sentence that burns with energy and builds with all the impetus of a crescendo, the roll of the drums, the crash of the cymbals—sounds that say listen to this, it is important.Gary Provost (via qmsd)

“There’s an independence about Mary - she’s not influenced by anyone and she’s very much her own person, she makes her own decisions. I understand her because I’m one of three girls too and I’ve always been defiant that I didn’t want to do what they did.”
- Michelle Dockery, “The World of Downton Abbey”
