Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday! This week is all about quotes. Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen seems very appropriate for Fall considering Catherine’s taste for Gothic novels so I decided to pick ten great quotes from the book. Reading these has reminded me that it has been far too long since I read it!
“No one who had ever seen Catherine Morland in her infancy, would have supposed her born to be a heroine.”
“If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad.”
“The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.”
“It is only a novel… or, in short, only some work in which the greatest powers of the mind are displayed, in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest delineation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humour, are conveyed to the world in the best-chosen language.”
“If a rainy morning deprived them of other enjoyments, they were still resolute in meeting in defiance of wet and dirt, and shut themselves up, to read novels together.”

“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.”
“I am delighted with the book! I should like to spend my whole life reading it. I assure you, if it had not been to meet you, I would not have come away from it for all the world.”
“Where the heart is really attached, I know very well how little one can be pleased with the attention of any body else.”
“Friendship is really the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.”
“Wherever you are you should always be contented, but especially at home, because there you must spend the most of your time.”
Which of these quotes do you like best? Have you read Northanger Abbey? If so, what did you think?
I really liked the quotes you’ve picked for this weeks Top Ten Tuesday and especially liked the third one which sounds and is very true. I haven’t actually read any books from Northanger Abbey but I would love to read some.
If you get a chance to read it, you’ll have to let me know what you think!

Northanger Abbey is my second favorite Jane Austen novel, after Persuasion, nice to see it getting some love! Tilney is such an underrated love interest! He knows muslin!
I think Northanger Abbey is underrated as well!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting. 🙂
I haven’t read “Northanger Abbey” but omg the quote about shutting yourself in to enjoy a novel on a rainy day is such a MOOD. Love that!
It is! Glad you enjoyed my list.

I really love “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.” This is so true. I love how you picked quote from a specific book. 🙂

Ahh, Northanger Abbey is the book that made me really “get” Jane Austen. This post reminds me of why!
I’m so glad you enjoyed my list!

I like the one on friendship and contentment. I haven’t read Northanger Abbey but I don’t mind reading the occasional old-timey book. Right now I’m reading the unabridged History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire and that’ll take a while. Maybe I’ll try something else from back in the day after that.
I like reading older classics too. If you read Northanger Abbey, you’ll have to let me know if you like it.

I love that you picked one book to supply all 10 quotes. And a great book at that. This really makes me want to do another re-read soon!

Love the quotes! Reading these make me miss Jane Austen’s wit. I’ve only read Pride and Prejudice from her but this one sounds even more fun.
Northanger Abbey is a lot of fun! You’ll have to let me know what you think if you get a chance to read it.

I’ve never read Northanger Abbey but these quotes definitely make it sound intriguing! I especially like this one
““If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad.””
🙂
It is really good, and highly underrated in my opinion. You’ll have to let me know if you like it if you ever get a chance to read it!

Great list! I’m really fond of Northanger Abbey.
Thanks! I’m glad you liked my choice for this week’s post. 🙂
Such a good idea to list quotes from just one book. Northanger Abbey is my least favourite from Jane Austen‘s book but it is still great.
My favourite is “It’s only a novel …”
Thanks for visiting my TTT earlier.

So many great quotes! Northanger Abbey has been sitting on my TBR pile for way longer than I care to admit, but I can’t think of a better time than this fall to finally get around to it.
I’m glad you enjoyed my list. No judgement on tbrs. Mine is huge and there have been a great many books sitting on it for longer than I care to admit!

This was one Jane Austen book I never read and I’m not sure why. I may have to try and find it. Also this one “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.” really spoke to me. That was me my whole life. Unfortunately for me, it usually caused me issues lol
I’m glad you enjoyed my list though I’m sorry to hear you’ve been hurt in the past. If you get a chance to read Northanger Abbey, you’ll have to let me know if you like it!

“The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.”
This is one of my favourite ever quotes. I have it on a mug and a tote bag 😀
How fun! I’d love to have something with a bookish quote on it!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting. 🙂
“Friendship is really the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love.”
This one has to be my favourite!
