My favorite quotes from Far From the Madding Crowd:
(Volume 1)
"It is safer to accept any chance that offers itself, and extemporize a procedure to fit it, than to get a good plan matured, and wait for a chance of using it." (p. 46)
(Volume 2)
"It is difficult for a woman to define her feelings in language which is chiefly made by men to express theirs."
(p.182)
