We have not one taste in commonWe should be miserable ?You are mistaken, FannyThe dissimilarity is not so strongYou are quite enough alikeYou have tastes in commonYou have moral and literary tastes in commonYou have both warm hearts and benevolent feelings; and, Fanny, who that heard him read, and saw you listen to Shakespeare the other night, will think you unfitted as companions? You forget yourself: there is a decided difference in your tempers, I allowHe is lively, you are serious; but so much the better: his spirits will support yoursIt is your disposition to be easily dejected and to fancy difficulties greater than they areHis cheerfulness will counteract thisHe sees difficulties nowhere: and his pleasantness and gaiety will be a constant support to youYour being so far unlike, Fanny, does not in the smallest degree make against the probability of your happiness together: do not imagine itI am myself convinced that it is rather a favourable circumstance I am perfectly persuaded that the tempers had better gucci men wallet be unlike: I mean unlike in the flow of the spirits, in the manners, in the inclination for much or little company, in the propensity to talk or to be silent, to be grave or to be gaySome opposition here is, I am thoroughly convinced, friendly to matrimonial happinessI exclude extremes, of course; and a very close resemblance in all those points would be the likeliest way to produce an extremeA counteraction, gentle and continual, is the best safeguard of manners and conduct Full well could Fanny guess where his thoughts were now: Miss Crawford?s power was all returningHe had been speaking of her cheerfully from the hour of his coming homeHis avoiding her was quite at an endHe had dined at the Parsonage only the preceding day After leaving him to his happier thoughts for some minutes, Fanny, feeling it due to herself, returned to MrCrawford, and said, ?It is 303 Jane Austen not merely in temper that I consider him as totally unsuited to myself; though, in that respect, I think the difference between us chanel j12 white watch too great, infinitely too great: his spirits often oppress me; but there is something in him which I object to still moreI must say, cousin, that I cannot approve his characterI have not thought well of him from the time of the playI then saw him behaving, as it appeared to me, so very improperly and unfeelingly?I may speak of it now because it is all over?so improperly by poor MrRushworth, not seeming to care how he exposed or hurt him, and paying attentions to my cousin Maria, which?in short, at the time of the play, I received an impression which will never be got over ?My dear Fanny,? replied Edmund, scarcely hearing her to the end, ?let us not, any of us, be judged by what we appeared at that period of general follyThe time of the play is a time which I hate to recollectMaria was wrong, Crawford was wrong, we were all wrong together; but none so wrong as myselfCompared with me, all the rest were blamelessI was playing the fool with my eyes open ?As a bystander,? said Fanny, ?perhaps I saw more than you balenciaga motorcycle handbags did; and I do think that MrRushworth was sometimes very jealousNothing could be more improper than the whole businessI am shocked whenever I think that Maria could be capable of it; but, if she could undertake the part, we must not be surprised at the rest ?Before the play, I am much mistaken if Julia did not think he was paying her attentions ?Julia! I have heard before from some one of his being in love with Julia; but I could never see anything of itAnd, Fanny, though I hope I do justice to my sisters? good qualities, I think it very possible that they might, one or both, be more desirous of being admired by Crawford, and might shew that desire rather more unguardedly than was perfectly prudentI can remember that they were evidently fond of his society; and with such encouragement, a man like Crawford, lively, and it may be, a little unthinking, might be led on to?there could be nothing very striking, because it is clear that he had no pretensions: his heart was reserved for you And I must say, that its being omega seamaster for sale for you has raised him inconceivably in my opinionIt does him the highest honour; it shews his proper 304 Mansfield Park estimation of the blessing of domestic happiness and pure attachment It proves him unspoilt by his uncleIt proves him, in short, everything that I had been used to wish to believe him, and feared he was not ?I am persuaded that he does not think, as he ought, on serious subjects ?Say, rather, that he has not thought at all upon serious subjects, which I believe to be a good deal the caseHow could it be otherwise, with such an education and adviser? Under the disadvantages, indeed, which both have had, is it not wonderful that they should be what they are? Crawford?s feelings, I am ready to acknowledge, have hitherto been too much his guidesHappily, those feelings have generally been goodYou will supply the rest; and a most fortunate man he is to attach himself to such a creature?to a woman who, firm as a rock in her own principles, has a gentleness of character so well adapted to recommend christian dior saddle t
