Anna Brownell Jameson
Conversation may be compared to a lyre with seven chords-philosophy, art, poetry, love, scandal, and the weather.

Anna Brownell Jameson
Modesty and chastity are twins
Anna Brownell Jameson
In every mind where there is a strong tendency to fear there is a strong capacity to hate. Those who dwell in fear dwell nest door to hate and I think it is the cowardice of women which makes them such intense haters.
Anna Brownell Jameson
A man may be as much a fool from the want of sensibility as the want of sense.
Anna Brownell Jameson
Conflict, which rouses up the best and highest powers in some characters, in others not only jars the whole being, but paralyzes the faculties.
Anna Brownell Jameson
Extreme vanity sometimes hides under the garb of ultra modesty.
Anna Brownell Jameson
the distinction between talent and genius is definite. Talent combines and uses genius combines and creates.
Anna Brownell Jameson
Have the courage to appear poor and you disarm poverty of its sharpest sting.
