Today's comes from by :

“There is safety in reserve, but no attraction. One cannot love a reserved person.”

(Response: See, I don't buy this. Mr. Lisa is a reserved person but full of passion underneath. Wasn't Darcy reserved and Elizabeth still loved him?)

@beexcessivelydiverting @bookstodon this makes me think of Anne Elliott telling Mrs. Smith that She doesn't believe Mr. Elliott can be trusted - because He always says the right thing, and is consistently agreeable and never offends anyone.

@beexcessivelydiverting @bookstodon when Elizabeth's aunt writes and says how much She really likes Darcy- it dawned on me what perfect complements They are for each other. and when Elizabeth shuts down Lady Catherine- it became certain. but just now, i was thinking of the real point. Lady Catherine and Mr. Collins are blind. because Their hearts are closed. and the promise of prodigious joy for Darcy and Elizabeth- is exactly because Their hearts are open. reserved is really closed, isn't it?
