George Eliot to John Blackwood, 15 December 1857. “I give up the motto because it struck you as having been used before, and though I copied it into my note-book when I was re-reading "Amelia" a few months ago, it is one of those obvious quotations which never appear fresh though they may actually be made for the first time.” GEL 2: 414
