Quote:
It is a truth universally aknowledged, that a single man in posession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife. However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.

Classic classic witty and observant; her best book (strictly speaking, not historical, since it was contemporary).
