It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
- first line of the book
The gentlemen pronounced him to be a fine figure of a man, the ladies declared he was much handsomer than Mr. Bingley, and he was looked at with great admiration for about half the evening, till his manners gave a disgust which tuned the tide of his popularity; for he was discovered to be proud, to be above his company, and above being pleased; and not all his large estate in Derbyshire could then save him from having a most forbidding, disagreeable countenance, and being unworthy to be compared with his friend.

Laugh as much as you choose, but you will not laugh me out of my opinion.
- Jane Bennett
To Elizabeth it appeared, that had her family made an agreement to expose themselves as much as they could during the evening, it would have been impossible for them to play their parts with more spirit, or finer success; and happy did she think it for Bingley and her sister that some of the exhibition had escaped his notice, and that his feelings were not of a sort to be much distressed by the folly which he must have witnessed.

An unhappy alternative is before you, Elizabeth. From this day you must be a stranger to one of your parents. Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins, and I will never see you again if you do.
- Mr. Bennett to Elizabeth LOL
"You are mistaken, Mr. Darcy, if you suppose that the mode of your declaration affected me in any other way, than as it spared me the concern which I might have felt in refusing you, had you behaved in a more gentleman-like manner"
- Elizabeth to Mr. Darcy
I am only resolved to act in that manner, which will, in my own opinion, constitute my happiness, without reference to you, or to any person so wholly unconnected with me.
- Elizabeth
Think only of the past as its remembrance gives you pleasure.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Ne, ich hatte das seit drei Jahren bei mir daheim rumliegen und wollt's net lesen weil ich immer dachte Jane Austen wär furchtbar kitschig. Aber ich hab sie unterschätzt, hab lang nich tmehr so ein lustiges Buch gelesen, manche Stellen waren echt total witzig, aber man muss es halt im Zusammenhang lesen.
