Pride and Prejudice character quotes

I apolygise for the spelling  - hope the notes are useful :S

Elizabeth Bennet
 
‘there are few people in the world whom I really love and still fewer of whom I think well.’ –

‘My courage always rises with every attempt to intimidate me.’ – why whenever she sees Darcy she has to be argumentative and on her guard.

‘I have had the pleasure of your acquaintance.’ (Mr Darcy to Elizabeth)- has he changed his mind about her?

‘My dear Eliza he must be in love you.’ (Charlotte to Elizabeth) – first idea of Darcy being in love with Lizzy for the reader - quite shocking becuase darcys cold manner suggest otherwise. also shows that charotte has premonition as she also forsees that jane sould show more affection for bingly to make sure he knows she likes him - had she done so darcy would have not tried to separate them.

 ' I must date it from my first seeing his beautiful grounds at Pemberley.' - lizzy explaines to jane that she loved darcy. the realisation of her love is also linked to her visit to pemberly as the house is a metaphor for darcys character and it shows her his real self.

Mr Darcy
 
'soon drew the attention of the room by his fine, tall person, handsome features, noble mien.' hes so handsome and stately that everyone notices him - commands a room just by being in it
'gentlemen pronounced him to be a fine figure of a man, the ladies declared he was much handsomer than Mr Bingley' men want to be him, women want to be with him
'till his manners gave a disgust which turned the tide of his popularity' people liked him untill they realised he was proud and rude, when…
