Money is the source of the greatest vice, and that nation which is most rich, is most wicked (Fanny Burney Quotes)
A youthful mind is seldom totally free from ambition; to curb that, is the first step to contentment, since to diminish expectation is to increase enjoyment (Fanny Burney Quotes)
To despise riches, may, indeed, be philosophic, but to dispense them worthily, must surely be more beneficial to mankind (Fanny Burney Quotes)
... it’s vastly more irksome to give up one’s own way, than to hear a few impertinent remarks (Fanny Burney Quotes)
... there’s nothing but quarreling with the women; it’s my belief they like it better than victuals and drink (Fanny Burney Quotes)
No man is in love when he marries. He may have loved before; I have even heard he has sometimes loved after: but at the time never. There is something in the formalities of the matrimonial preparations that drive away all the little cupidons (Fanny Burney Quotes)
Wealth per se I never too much valued, and my acquaintance with its possessors has by no means increased my veneration for it (Fanny Burney Quotes)
Misery is a guest that we are glad to part with, however certain of her speedy return (Fanny Burney Quotes)
Don’t be angry with the gentleman for thinking, whatever be the cause, for I assure you he makes no common practice of offending in that way (Fanny Burney Quotes)
An old woman... is a person who has no sense of decency; if once she takes to living, the devil himself can’t get rid of her (Fanny Burney Quotes)

For my part, I confess I seldom listen to the players: one has so much to do, in looking about and finding out one’s acquaintance, that, really, one has no time to mind the stage. One merely comes to meet one’s friends, and show that one’s alive (Fanny Burney Quotes)
Unused to the situations in which I find myself, and embarassed by the slightest difficulties, I seldom discover, till too late, how I ought to act (Fanny Burney Quotes)
There si nothing upon the face of the earth so insipid as a medium. Give me love or hate! A friend that will go to jail for me, or an enemy that will run me through the body! (Fanny Burney Quotes)
I am tired to death! tired of every thing! I would give the universe for a disposition less difficult to please. Yet, after all, what is there to give pleasure? When one has seen one thing, one has seen every thing (Fanny Burney Quotes)
I wish the opera was every night. It is, of all entertainments, the sweetest and most delightful. Some of the songs seemed to melt my very soul (Fanny Burney Quotes)
O! how short a time does it take to put an end to a woman’s liberty! (Fanny Burney Quotes)
How little has situation to do with happiness. The happy individual uses their intelligence to realise things could be worse and therefore is grateful and happy. The unhappy individual does the opposite! (Fanny Burney Quotes)
