Jane Austen Quotes, Distance Quotes, Land Quotes

I am excessively fond of a cottage; there is always so much comfort, so much elegance about them. And I protest, if I had any money to spare, I should buy a little land and build one myself, within a short distance of London, where I might drive myself down at any time, and collect a few friends about me and be happy. I advise everybody who is going to build, to build a cottage.

I have feelings that are to the right, and I have feelings that land on the left side of the aisle.
