From Don't Never Forget:Collected Views and Reviews, by Brigid Brophy

MISS

'Miss J. Austen is the opposite of the cult-figure.  She would have made a lamentable schoolmistress.  For one thing, and not such a tiny one as it seems because it may well be a symptom of anarchic forces in her temperament, she couldn't spell."

From Jane Austen
