简·奥斯汀，是英国著名女性小说家，她的作品主要关注乡绅家庭女性的婚姻和生活，以女性特有的细致入微的观察力和活泼风趣的文字真实地描绘了她周围世界的小天地。
奥斯丁21岁时写成她的第一部小说，题名《最初的印象》，她与出版商联系出版，没有结果。就在这一年，她又开始写《埃莉诺与玛丽安》，以后她又写《诺桑觉寺》，于1799年写完。十几年后，《最初的印象》经过改写，换名为《傲慢与偏见》，《埃莉诺与玛丽安》经过改写，换名为《理智与情感》，分别得到出版。至于《诺桑觉寺》，作者生前没有出书。以上这三部是奥斯丁前期作品，写于她的故乡史蒂文顿。
她的后期作品同样也是三部：《曼斯菲尔德庄园》、《爱玛》和《劝导》，都是作者迁居乔顿以后所作。前两部先后出版，只有1816年完成的《劝导》，因为作者对原来的结局不满意，要重写，没有出版过。她病逝以后，哥哥亨利·奥斯丁负责出版了《诺桑觉寺》和《劝导》，并且第一次用了简·奥斯丁这个真名。
1.The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.― Jane Austen
2.There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.― Jane Austen
3.A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.― Jane Austen
4.I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.― Jane Austen
5.In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.― Jane Austen
6.I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.― Jane Austen
7.The more I know of the world, the more I am convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love. I require so much!― Jane Austen
8.It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.― Jane Austen
9.There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and of the little dependence that can be placed on the appearance of merit or sense.― Jane Austen
10.I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.― Jane Austen
11.Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.― Jane Austen
12.I hate to hear you talk about all women as if they were fine ladies instead of rational creatures. None of us want to be in calm waters all our lives.― Jane Austen
13.I can listen no longer in silence. I must speak to you by such means as are within my reach. You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight years and a half ago. Dare not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death. I have loved none but you. Unjust I may have been, weak and resentful I have been, but never inconstant. You alone have brought me to Bath. For you alone, I think and plan. Have you not seen this? Can you fail to have understood my wishes? I had not waited even these ten days, could I have read your feelings, as I think you must have penetrated mine. I can hardly write. I am every instant hearing something which overpowers me. You sink your voice, but I can distinguish the tones of that voice when they would be lost on others. Too good, too excellent creature! You do us justice, indeed. You do believe that there is true attachment and constancy among men. Believe it to be most fervent, most undeviating, in F. W.
I must go, uncertain of my fate; but I shall return hither, or follow your party, as soon as possible. A word, a look, will be enough to decide whether I enter your father's house this evening or never.― Jane Austen
14.There is a stubbornness about me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others. My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me.― Jane Austen
15.The Very first moment I beheld him, my heart was irrevocably gone.― Jane Austen
