pride and prejudice ... sentence starters
“May I have the next dance?”
“But will that make you happy?“
“He looks miserable, poor soul.“
“No, they are far too easy to judge.“
“You really do love him, don't you?”
“What endearments am I allowed?”
“Why do you ask such a question?“
“Angry people are not always wise.“
“Are you... are you laughing at me?”
“How are you this evening, my dear?“
“You are too generous to trifle with me.“
“Not all of us can afford to be romantic.”
“I thought that poetry was the food of love.“
“And... what should I call you when I am cross?“
“I have never been thus treated in my entire life!”
“So don't you judge me... Don't you dare judge me!”
“Because we're doing our best to find a fault in you.“
“I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.“
“So what do you recommend to encourage affection?“
“She is the most beautiful creature I have ever beheld.“
“Miserable he may be, but poor he most certainly is not.“
“Forgive me, madam, for taking up so much of your time.“
“You must know... surely, you must know it was all for you.“
“Are you out of your senses? I thought you hated the man.”
“I didn't know you were coming to see me! What's the matter?”
“You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love you.”
“It has taught me to hope as I'd scarcely allowed myself before.”
“So this is your opinion of me? Thank you for explaining so fully.“
“I could more easily forgive his vanity had he not wounded mine.”
“Have you no objection other than your belief in my indifference?“
“You can only have two motives, and I would interfere with either.”
“Might I ask why, with so little endeavor at civility, I am thus repulsed?“
“Perfectly tolerable, I daresay, but not handsome enough to tempt me.“
“Oh, believe me, no one would suspect your manners to be rehearsed.“
“Our surest way of disappointing him will be to ask him nothing about it.“
“I love you. Most ardently. Please do me the honor of accepting my hand.“
“How can you tease me so? Have you no compassion for my poor nerves?”
“First, I must tell you I've been the most unmitigated and comprehensive ass.“
“It would be most inconvenient since I have sworn to loathe him for all eternity.“
“Oh, dear, I cannot tease you about that. What a shame, for I dearly love to laugh.“
“I... do not have the talent of conversing easily with people I have never met before.“
“You have insulted me in every possible way, and can now have nothing further to say.“
“Only the deepest love will persuade me into matrimony, which is why I will end up an old maid.“
“I am well enough acquainted with you to know that I can not alarm you, even should I wish it.”
“My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever.“
“I have struggled in vain and I can bear it no longer. These past months have been a torment.“
“Perhaps these offences might have been overlooked had not your pride been hurt by my honesty.“
“I'm sure that the feelings which, as you've told me have hindered your regard, will help you in overcoming it.“
“I cannot believe that anyone can deserve you... but it appears I am overruled. So, I heartily give my consent.”
“I appreciate the struggle you have been through, and I am very sorry to have caused you pain. Believe me, it was unconsciously done.“
“I might as well enquire why, with so evident a design of insulting me, you chose to tell me that you liked me against your better judgment.“
“If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love...I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.”
“I had to see you. I have fought against my better judgment, my family's expectations, the inferiority of your birth by rank and circumstance. All these things I am willing to put aside and ask you to end my agony.”

​Bridgerton Characters & their matching Pride & Prejudice quotes:
Penelope: I've no money and no prospects. I'm already a burden to my parents and I'm frightened. So don't you judge me.
Penelope, Eloise & Edwina: I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading!
Simon (to Daphne), Anthony (to Kate): In vain have I 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.
Violet, Lady Danbury, Queen Charlotte & Portia: It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.
Colin: There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and of the little dependence that can be placed on the appearance of merit or sense.
Violet: Do anything rather than marry without affection.
Colin (about falling in love with Penelope): I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.
Penelope, Queen Charlotte, Portia, Violet, Kate, Daphne, (basically everyone except Mr. Finch): There is a stubbornness about me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others. My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me.
Kate (about Anthony), Young Violet (about young Edmund), Penelope (about Colin): I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine.
Penelope, Queen Charlotte, Portia, Violet, Kate, Daphne, (basically everyone except Eloise): To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love.
Penelope, (basically the ton & anyone in London who buys Lady Whistledown): For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbors, and laugh at them in our turn?
Penelope, Violet, Daphne, Kate, Edwina: Do anything rather than marry without affection.
Violet (to all her children), Penelope (pleading with Marina & Eloise not to do things they plan on doing) Portia & Mary (with life in general): Have a little compassion on my nerves. You tear them to pieces.
Penelope: I certainly have not the talent which some people possess, of conversing easily with those I have never seen before.
Colin (realizing he loves Penelope & only had a boyish infatuation for Marina): Had I been in love, I could not have been more wretchedly blind. But vanity, not love, has been my folly. Pleased with the preference of one, and offended by the neglect of the other, on the very beginning of our aquaintance, I have courted prepossession and ignorance, and driven reason away, where either were concerned. Till this moment I never knew myself.
Kate, Queen Charlotte, Daphne, Penelope, Lady Danbury, Eloise: Now be sincere; did you admire me for my impertinence?
Penelope (to Colin), Queen Charlotte (to anyone groveling successfully before her): It is happy for you that you possess the talent of flattering with delicacy. May I ask whether these pleasing attentions proceed from the impulse of the moment, or are they the result of previous study?
Colin (at Featherington ball about Penelope): She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me; and I am in no humour at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men.
Daphne (to Simon at dinner before their fake courtship): From the very beginning— from the first moment, I may almost say— of my acquaintance with you, your manners, impressing me with the fullest belief of your arrogance, your conceit, and your selfish disdain of the feelings of others… I had not known you a month before I felt that you were the last man in the world whom I could ever be prevailed on to marry.
Portia: Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance.
Eloise: My good opinion once lost, is lost forever.
Kate: A girl likes to be crossed a little in love now and then.
Anthony: Is not general incivility the very essence of love?
Penelope & Eloise (fighting with each other): There is nothing so bad as parting with one’s friends.
Penelope: There are very few who have heart enough to be really in love without encouragement.

Recently rereading Pride and Prejudice I came across this quote which, in my opinion, is one of the most relatable things about the book. The feeling that whatever bold choice you have made is the single most horrible, embarrassing choice that you could have made, that resulted in the worst possible outcome in the whole world.
"But Elizabeth heard not a word, and wholly engrossed by her own feelings, followed them in silence. She was overpowered by shame and vexation. Her coming there was the most unfortunate, the most ill-judged thing in the world!"
These are her thoughts when she lets her aunt and uncle, the Gardiners, take her to Pemberly, Mr Darcy's home in Derbyshire, under the assumption that he wouldn't be there, only to have him arrive just as she's leaving. Mind you, this is after she savagely rejected him with the "you are the last man in the world whom I could ever be prevailed upon to marry" line. Brutal. Despite that, he's polite and kind, but she's stuck in her head, so embarrassed about the fact that she was even there in the first place, and what he must think. Her train of thought wouldn't be anything other than painfully relatable except for the very last line of the book. Which is:
"With the Gardiners, they were always on the most intimate terms. Darcy, as well as Elizabeth, really loved them; and they were both ever sensible of the warmest gratitude towards the persons who, by bringing her into Derbyshire, had been the means of uniting them."
I just think the idea that you can go through something that you consider the worst thing to ever happen to you, the most embarrassing thing you have ever done, and later have the perspective to realize that had to happen in order for you to get something better. Okay yeah, if she had never let her aunt and uncle take her to Derbyshire, she would have avoided "the most unfortunate and ill-judged thing in the world". I'm sure she would have seriously appreciated short-term, but I think looking back on it, she'd willingly do it over again if it meant getting to marry the man she loves.
I just think it's lovely that life has a funny way of flipping things around, so what was once horribly embarrassing and painful later becomes something you're incredibly grateful for and wouldn't change for the world.

Do not consider me now as an elegant female, intending to play you, but as a rational creature, speaking the truth from her heart.
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
I fell in love with this quote the second I had the privilege to read it.

“It has been coming on so gradually, that I hardly know when it began. But I believe I must date it from my first seeing his beautiful grounds at Pemberley.”

After a mission…
Dick: I can’t wait to go home, have a bowl of cereal, and go to sleep.
Duke: Lucky, I have patrol in like, two hours. No sleep for me. What’re you going to do when you get home, Jason?
Dick: Wait! Let me guess. Crack open a beer, order in Chinese food, and fall asleep on the couch watching a gritty action movie.
Jason, fully planning on having a lavender scented bubble bath while drinking vanilla earl grey tea and watching Pride and Prejudice: … Something like that.
