Strana 282 - Clarissa is not a performance to be read with eagerness, and laid aside forever; but will be occasionally consulted by the busy, the aged, and the studious...
Strana 281 - DEAR SIR, — Though Clarissa wants no help from external splendour, I was glad to see her improved in her appearance, but more glad to find that she was now got above all fears of prolixity, and confident enough of success to supply whatever had been hitherto suppressed.
Strana 263 - Men and Women are Brothers and Sisters: They are not of different Species; and what need be obtained to know both, but to allow for different Modes of Education /(or/ Situation[)] ; and Constitution, or perhaps I should rather /say/ for Habits, whether good or bad.
Strana 148 - Yet I will do him justice; and, if forced by friends, or led by curiosity you have read, and laughed, and almost cried at Tristram, I will agree with you that there is subject for mirth, and some affecting strokes...

Strana 282 - I wish you would add an index rerum, that when the reader recollects any incident, he may easily find it, which at present he cannot do, unless he knows in which volume it is told ; for Clarissa...
Strana 283 - RETURN you my sincerest thanks for the volumes of your new work;* but it is a kind of tyrannical kindness to give only so much at a time, as makes more longed for : but that will probably be thought, even of the whole, when you have given it. I have no objection but to the preface, in which you first mention the letters as fallen by some chance into your hands, and afterwards mention your health as such, that you almost despaired of going through your plan.
