Elizabeth Bennet

She had a lively, playful disposition that

delighted in anything ridiculous

“I am determined that nothing but the deepest love

shall induce me into matrimony.”

“I am no longer surprised at your knowing only six accomplished women.

I rather wonder now at your knowing any”

To Mr Collins “You could not

make me happy”

“My feelings in every respect

forbid it”

“She only smiles, I

laugh.”

with weary ankles, dirty stockings, and

a face glowing with the warmth of exercise.

To Lydia “I do not particularly

like your way of getting husbands”

Darcy is “the last man in the world whom I could ever be

prevailed on to marry”

“I am only resolved to act in that manner, which

will… constitute my happiness.”

“I could have easily forgiven his pride, if he had not

mortified mine”

“Heaven forbid! That would be the greatest misfortune of all!

To find a man agreeable whom one is determined to hate!”

“You could not have made me the offer of your hand in any possible way

that would have tempted me to accept it” to Darcy

Miss Bingley says “She is a great reader, and

has no pleasure in anything else.”

“Did not suspect him of descending to such malicious revenge,

such injustice, such inhumanity as this”

“You could not

make me happy”

to Mr Collins “Do not consider me now as an elegant female, intending to plague you,

but as a rational creature, speaking the truth from her heart.”

“Till this moment

I never knew myself”

“One has got all the goodness,

and the other all the appearance of it”

“My courage always rises with

every attempt to intimidate me”

Had never been blind to the

impropriety of her father’s behaviour as a husband

Of neither Darcy nor Wickham could she think, without feeling

that she had been blind, partial, prejudiced, absurd

Her heart was divided between concern for her sister

and resentment against all others.

“He must be an oddity…

there is something very pompous in his style” about Mr Collins

“I love him.

Indeed he has no improper pride”
