Pride and Prejudice
PRIDE AND PREJUDICE (Penguin Popular Classics)
-=-=-=-=-
When a woman has five grown up daughters, she ought to give over thinking of her own beauty.
- Mrs. Bennett
Every impulse of feeling should be guided by reason.
- Mary Bennet, p. 27
Nothing is more deceitful than the appearance of humility.
- Mr. Darcy, p. 40
Yes, vanity is a weakness indeed. But pride - where there is a real superiority of mind, pride will always be under regulation.
- Mr. Darcy, p. 47
My good opinion once lost, is lost forever.
- Mr. Darcy, p. 47
We must not expect a lively young man to be always so guarded and circumspect.
It is very often nothing but our own vanity that deceives us.
- Ms. Bennet, p. 108
A young man... so easily falls in love with a pretty girl for a few weeks, and when accidents separates them, so easily forgets her, that these sort of inconstancies are very frequent.
- Mrs. Gardiner, p. 111
In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed.
You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.
- Mr. Darcy, p. 147
We love to instruct, though we can teach only what is not worth knowing.
- Ms. Bennet, p. 264
Painful recollections will intrude, which cannot, which ought not, to be repelled.
- Mr. Darcy, p. 284
Violently in love: It is as often applied to feelings which arise from an half-hour's acquaintance, as to a real, strong attachment.
- Pride and Prejudice
Reflection must be reserved for solitary hours.
