Из «Гордости и предубеждения»
«Человек может быть гордым не будучи тщеславным. Гордость скорее связана с нашим собственным о себе мнением, тщеславие же с мнением других людей, которое нам бы хотелось, чтобы они составили о нас».
«Женщины придают слишком большое значение единственному восхищенному взгляду. А мужчины стараются их в этом заблуждении поддержать».
