William Shakespeare - Sonnet 116

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments . Love is not love

which alters when it alteration finds

or bends with the remover to remove

oh , no ! It is an ever-fixed mark,

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark,

whose wort's unknown, although his height be taken

Love's not tome's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

With his bending sickle's compass come

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks

But bears it out even to the edge of doom

If this be error and upon me proved

I never write , nor no man ever loved.

    "The picture quality of the 1995 film is clearer than that of the 2008 TV series." Twenty-year-old Kate Winslet is so good-looking, as if she came out of an oil painting. When AR was reading to her, every ending sounded too good. Emma, ​​who wanted to kiss Uncle Hugh in a show for herself, and Director Ang Lee went with her. Thinking of this, she felt so cute~ Then she also brought her ex-boyfriend Dr. Howes when he was studying in Cambridge. It's amazing~

    Rewatch. The delicacy and precision of emotional grasp is admirable, and the script almost surpasses the original work. These cast members were as beautiful as they were at that time, and the acting was also fantastic. If I could lick Greg Wise once on the big screen, I would really satisfy my life. Complete, happyst person on earth.

Sense and Sensibility quotes

  • Charlotte Palmer: To think! We can see his insufferable house from the top of our hill. I shall ask Jackson to plant some very tall trees.

    Mr. Palmer: You will do nothing of the sort.

  • Mrs. Dashwood: We're so happy that you chose to invite Edward to Norland. He's a dear boy. We're all very fond of him.

    Fanny: We have great hopes for him. Much is expected of him by our mother with regard to his profession.

    Mrs. Dashwood: Naturally.

    Fanny: And in marriage. She's determined that both he and Robert will marry well.

    Mrs. Dashwood: Of course. But I hope she desires them to marry for love.

    Fanny: Love is all very well, but unfortunately we cannot always rely on the heart to lead us in the most suitable directions. You see, my dear Mrs. Dashwood, Edward is entirely the kind of compassionate person upon whom penniless women can prey. And having entered into any understanding, he would never go back on his word. He's simply incapable of doing so, but it would lead to his ruin. I worry for him so, Mrs. Dashwood. My mother has made it perfectly plain that she would withdraw all financial support from Edward should he choose to plant his affections in less... exalted ground than he deserves.

    Mrs. Dashwood: I understand you perfectly.
