劝说
Northanger Abbey shows the reader that love goes far beyond all of the romance stories written about it. Mansfield Park proves that love is a game that plays above all social ranks and status.
There is something so amiable in the prejudices of a young mind, that one is sorry to see them give way to the reception of more general opinions.
—理智与情感
—诺桑觉寺

Northanger Abbey Quotes
The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.

Persuasion Quotes
