AUSTEN QUOTES x SANDITON
An Epic Thread

Because #Sanditon embodies the very spirit of Austen.

1. "Could there be finer symptoms? Is not general incivility the very essence of love?"

(That time he was mean on purpose to avoid the truth of his feelings.)

2. "When I fall in love it will be forever."

(Because we know what it cost him to be honest, to be true, to believe himself worthy of her love)

3. "I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for."

(This moment. This kiss. The promise of forever cut short. The knowledge that nothing will ever change what they feel.)

4. "Our scars make us know that our past was for real"

(That time Charlotte roasted him and we saw the pain of his past resurface on the planes of his face)

5. "There is a stubbornness about me that can never bear to be frightened by the will of others. My courage always rises with every attempt to intimidate me."

(Because she's not afraid to tell him where to stick it and he lowkey loves her for it.)

6. "Run mad as often as you choose, but do not faint."

(That time she saw him naked and was...mortified. She ran like hell, but homegirl DID NOT faint)

7. "A woman, especially if she have the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can."

(That time she lost him to the fire, to Eliza, to circumstance, and breathed in her pain instead of letting it show)

8. "It isn't what we say or think that defines us, but what we do."

(That time he listened to Charlotte's criticisms and did everything in his power to make amends.)

9. "If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad."

(That time Charlotte came to Sanditon, innocent and unassuming of the adventures that would befall her)

10. "Time will explain."

(That time we were stunned stupid by this and hoped like hell for a Season 2 to explain this unnatural travesty.)

11. "And sometimes I have kept my feelings to myself because I could find no language to describe them in."

(That time he loved her, but lacked the courage to voice to his feelings until he realized he could lose her)

#Sanditon #SanditonPBS #SaveSanditon

12. "I must learn to be content with being happier that I deserve."

(That time Babbers married Esther and it was nothing less than what they both deserved.)
