It is very unfair to judge of any body’s conduct, without an intimate knowledge of their situation.

The course of true love never did run smooth.

if a woman doubts as to whether she should accept a man or not, she certainly ought to refuse him. If she can hesitate as to ‘Yes,’ she ought to say ‘No’ directly. It is not a state to be safely entered into with doubtful feelings, with half a heart.

Success supposes endeavour.
