Mr. Bennett: "If my children are silly, I must hope to be always sensible of it."
Mrs. Bennett: "Yes--but as it happens, they are all of them very clever."
Mr. Bennett: "This is the only point, I flatter myself, on which we do not agree. I had hoped that our sentiments coincided in every particular, but I must so far differ from you as to think youngest daughter uncommonly foolish."
Pride and Prejudice (Volume 1, Chapter 7)
