“Let us never underestimate the power of a well-written letter.”

“I suppose you have heard of the handsome letter Mr. Frank Churchill had written to Mrs. Weston? I understand it was a very handsome letter, indeed. Mr. Woodhouse told me of it. Mr. Woodhouse saw the letter, and he says he never saw such a handsome letter in his life.”

“Let us never underestimate the power of a well-written letter.”

“[I]f a book is well written, I always find it too short.”

“That will do extremely well, child. You have delighted us long enough. Let the other young ladies have time to exhibit.”

“but for my own part, if a book is well written, I always find it too short.”

“You deserve a longer letter than this; but it is my unhappy fate seldom to treat people so well as they deserve.”
