lucky old girl

Austin is really healing, and the old girl also has spring. In the end, there will still be a handsome, golden, gentle and considerate prince who doesn't care about the heroine's appearance, and who is deeply in love to rescue her.
Even though the heroine once rejected the man because he had no money, eight years later, the man became prosperous and thought he could raise his eyebrows. I can't help but think that if the male protagonist is still the same poor man after eight years, the only increase is his age, will Ann still look like that kind of lovesickness. Is it still true love? In fact, love is a thing, is it accurate, how can it really be so pure that there is only love? But why bother, loving someone, of course, includes the money, knowledge, height and appearance attached to that person.
Don't be obsessed, just be happy.
Austin told us that as a woman, you can have no money and no looks, but you have to be kind and artistic. Even if you abandon a man for the most mundane reasons, that man will never leave you. Enough entanglement is true love. Damn, these are the lives of the heroine.
Why didn't I watch this movie earlier, what is a woman's face compared to happiness, I don't like myself now. I'm so arrogant in my heart that I want to send a message to someone, but I can't get past my own level. Not every kind woman is lucky to have a prince to love in the end. When happiness comes, you must seize it. This is responsible for yourself.
Although I keep telling myself that this film is too unrealistic, I still immerse myself in the relaxed and comfortable scenery in the countryside and can't help myself. I really love the tone of Austin. But remind yourself from time to time that when happiness knocks on your door, you must seize it.

Persuasion quotes

  • Lady Russell: Anne! Who is Admiral Croft? And why does he cause you to be out of countenance so?... Anne.

    Anne Elliot: Admiral Croft's wife is... is...

    Lady Russell: Mrs. Croft.

    Anne Elliot: Indeed. And Mrs. Croft is the sister of Captain... Frederick Wentworth.

    Lady Russell: Wentworth? I see. I see.

    Anne Elliot: To think that soon he may be walking through this house.

    Lady Russell: Anne, you know that your father thought it a most unsuitable match. He would never have countenanced an alliance he deemed so degrading.

    Anne Elliot: He was not alone, as I recall.

    Lady Russell: My dear, to become engaged at 19, in the middle of a war, to a young naval officer who had no fortune and no expectations. You would indeed have been throwing yourself away. And I should have been failing in my duty as your godmother if I did not counsel against it. You were young, and it was entirely prudent to break off the understanding.

  • Sir Walter Elliot: Come, come, Anne! We must not be late. You cannot have forgotten we have an invitation from Lady Dalrymple.

    Anne Elliot: I regret I am already engaged to spend the evening with an old school-friend.

    Elizabeth Elliot: Not that sickly old widow in Westgate-buildings?

    Anne Elliot: Mrs Smith. Yes.

    Sir Walter Elliot: Smith? Westgate building?

    Mrs. Clay: Excuse me.

    Sir Walter Elliot: And who, pray, is Mrs Smith? One of the five thousand Smiths that are everywhere to be met with? Upon my word, Miss Anne Elliot, you have the most extraordinary taste. To place such a person ahead of your own family connections among the nobility of England and Ireland. Mrs Smith!

    Anne Elliot: Perhaps she is not the only poor widow in Bath with little to live on and no surname of dignity. Good evening.
