As Jane Austen's health declined near the end of her life, she continued to work on a manuscript that she would never finish: a would-be seventh novel entitled Sanditon, which satirized health fads and introduced new complexities of character into her fiction.

It's important to remind ourselves that we're not alone in this world and to also understand, it's not fair to treat the rest of the world as if we are all that matters.
