There will be little rubs and disappointments everywhere, and we are all apt to expect too much; but then, if one scheme of happiness fails, human nature turns to another; if the first calculation is wrong, we make a second better: we find comfort somewhere.
Jane Austen (1775 - 1817), Mansfield Park
Sense and Sensibility (Oxford World’s Classics) by Jane Austen, Claire Lamont, James Kinsley, Margaret Anne Doody
