“I believe you spoke with my aunt last night, and it has taught me to hope as I’d scarcely allowed myself before. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.”
Pride and Prejudice (2005) dir. Joe Wright

CALLOUT POST for Fitzwilliam Darcy
- did not consider me handsome enough to dance with
- has been the means of ruining, perhaps for ever, the happiness of a most beloved sister
- reduced George Wickham to his present state of comparative poverty (I don’t have receipts on this but trust me)
- is full of arrogance, conceit, and selfish disdain of the feelings of others; is ungentlemanlike in general
EDIT: I HAVE RESCINDED ALL CALLOUTS OF MR. DARCY He is now my husband (long story)
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.
Pride & Prejudice (2005) dir. Joe Wright
You may only call me “Mrs. Darcy”… when you are completely, and perfectly, and incandescently happy. Then how are you this evening… Mrs. Darcy?

Only the deepest love will persuade me into matrimony, which is why I will end up an old maid.
