Whose regret?

Letha 2022-04-20 09:02:39

It's not just about bread and love. It's a woman who insists on herself through the long years and wants to follow her inner life.
The 20-year-old Jane can proudly refuse suitors, and she can be picky and persistent with her heart, but the 40-year-old Jane, whose youth and passion have vanished, can only go on tenaciously with her memories and beliefs. I can only move forward decisively, even if I have to face the harshness of my relatives and the pressure of my family.
This is the problem of life. Do you choose to destroy your inner love for life and spend your whole life with someone, or do you choose to stick to yourself in poverty and coercion? Either way, both are sad. The former is tantamount to destroying his own passion and youth. The latter is to suffer slowly in the long years, and at the same time accept other people's strange eyes and pressure. Therefore, it is not easy to live according to your inner voice.
Watching this movie was a real shock to me. At my age, I have missed the right person. And then proudly refused to bow his head to accommodate life, can only insist. Then will Jane's life repeat itself? The reality is so terrifying, the predecessors and the future generations are the same.

Miss Austen Regrets quotes

  • Jane Austen: [Reads to Cassandra from first draft of Persuasion] More than seven years were gone since this little history of sorrowful interest had reached its close;

    Jane Austen: She had been forced into prudence in her youth, she learned romance as she grew older: the natural sequel of an unnatural beginning.She had used him ill, deserted and disappointed him; and worse, she had shewn a feebleness of character in doing so, which his own decided, confident temper could not endure. She had given him up to oblige others.

    Jane Austen: She hoped to be wise and reasonable in time; but alas! alas! she must confess to herself that she was not wise yet.

    Harris Bigg: I don't know how you can say it without tears.

    Jane Austen: I don't cry at anything that pays me money

  • Jane Austen: What if you do meet him

    [the right man]

    Jane Austen: and he doesn't have any money?

    Fanny Austen-Knight: But if I love him then nothing else matters!

    Jane Austen: What in heavens name gave you that idea?

    Fanny Austen-Knight: It says so in all your books.

    Edward Austen Knight: [gravely] If that's what you think they say, my dear, perhaps, you should read them again.
