Funniest Quote: "The course of true love never did run smooth. A Hartfield edition of Shakespeare would have a long note on that passage." OR "Emma was very compassionate; and the distresses of the poor were as sure of relief from her personal attention and kindness, her counsel and her patience, as from her purse."
