She is known only as a parlor boarder at a common school. She is pretty and she is good-tempered, and that is all.
Emma Woodhouse:
That is all? These are not trivial recommendations, Mr. Knightley. 'Til men do fall in love with well-informed minds instead of handsome faces, a girl with such loveliness as Harriet has a certainty of being admired and sought after wherever she goes. I am very much mistaken if your sex, in general, would not find these qualities the highest claims a woman could possess.
Mr. Knightley:
Upon my word, Emma, to hear you abusing the reason you have, is almost enough to make me think so too. Better to be without sense altogether than to misapply it as you do.
