Reading Far from the Madding Crowd, which I’m enjoying very much, but I just got to this line and it made me laugh…
“Women are never tired of pointing out men’s fickleness in love, but they only seem to snub his constancy”
Did Thomas Hardy really just say, “Nice guys finish last?” I found it curious to find this concept in a classic when I thought this kind of discourse was an internet phenomenon. Have you ever found other “old” ways of saying popular phrases from 21st century?
