I know I can't gezegde

 I know, I can't believe it's an American either. I can do the accent, they wouldn't have hired me if I couldn't. I'm attached to it and we're trying to get financing for it. Jane Austen is one of the most special literary figures. I don't want to short change her in any way.

 One of the interpreters hired by CBS for the Dan Rather/Saddam Hussein interview adopted a phony Arabic accent. You know, maybe CBS should have hired somebody with a fake Dan Rather accent to ask tougher questions.
  Jay Leno

 If I tried to make money for a Jane Austen movie, I'd get laughed out of the office.

 Hence the American dilemma. How do you convince lenders to lend when you can't even obey your own laws about spending limits? It's one thing to sell short-term debt with a respectable yield, but who will be willing to hold any American obligations - short- or long-term - as the nation's financing needs grow larger relative to its productivity?

 She [Jane Austen] was then the prettiest, silliest, most affected, husband-hunting butterfly she ever remembers.
  Mary Russell Mitford

 I know literary figures aren't necessarily an easy sell for mainstream audiences. But he represents something bigger than himself. He's an American triumph and tragedy.

 Well, English is no problem for me because I am actually English. My whole family are English; I was brought up listening to various forms of the English accent. Obviously there are more specific ones that get a little bit tricky. Same with American stuff. But because in Australia we're so inundated with American culture, television, this that and the other, everyone in Australia can do an American accent. It's just second nature.

 The system -- the American one, at least -- is a vast and noble experiment. It has been polestar and exemplar for other nations. But from kindergarten until she graduates from college the girl is treated in it exactly like her brothers. She studies the same subjects, becomes proficient at the same sports. Oh, it is a magnificent lore she learns, education for the mind beyond anything Jane Austen or Saint Theresa or even Mrs. Pankhurst ever dreamed. It is truly Utopian. But Utopia was never meant to exist on this disheveled planet.
  Phyllis McGinley

 The accent got lost somewhere along the way. I'm a little embarrassed about it. When I arrived in LA I assumed I'd be able to put on the American accent. It proved difficult so I had six months working with a dialect coach and it's become a habit.

 Jane Austen has phenomenal craft, ... I tried to stay faithful to the narrative, the tone and atmosphere of the book, to find a cinematic equivalent of 'Pride and Prejudice.'

 It is young love. It is Jane Austen in love, something you've never seen before, a complete departure from the usual oblique portrait of her as a spinster.

 Just the omission of Jane Austen's books alone would make a fairly good library out of a library that hadn't a book in it.
  Mark Twain

 Young men and young women meet each other with much less difficulty than was formerly the case, and every housemaid expects at least once a week as much excitement as would have lasted a Jane Austen heroine throughout a whole novel
  Bertrand Russell

 I write about violence as naturally as Jane Austen wrote about manners. Violence shapes and obsesses our society, and if we do not stop being violent we have no future.
  Edward Bond

 Those guys, they work in a short space, so they're more quick-footed guys rather than having straight-out speed. But yeah, to be that big and still move and change direction the way they do, that's what makes them special. Otherwise, every 340-pound man in American would come out to play football.
