  • (Rosamund Pike) "No, nor the last I dare say."
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "Now she'll have to stay the night. Exactly as I predicted."

  • (Brenda Blethyn) "Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins -- and I will never see you again if you do."

  • (Brenda Blethyn) "Well, if Jane does die, it will be a comfort to know she was in pursuit of Mr. Bingley."

Kelly Reilly as Caroline Bingley

  • (Keira Knightley) "I'm so sorry. How is my sister?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "She's upstairs."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Thank you."

  • (Kelly Reilly) "We are a long way from Grover's Square, are we not, Mr. Darcy?"
  • (Kelly Reilly) "Miss Elizabeth, let us take a turn about the room."
  • (Kelly Reilly) "It's refreshing, is it not after sitting so long in one attitude?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "And it is a small kind of accomplishment, I suppose."
  • (Kelly Reilly) "Will you not join us, Mr. Darcy?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "You can only have two motives, Caroline and I would interfere with either."
  • (Kelly Reilly) "What can he mean?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Our surest way of disappointing him will be to ask him nothing about it."
  • (Kelly Reilly) "But Do tell us, Mr. Darcy."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Either you are in each other's confidence and have secret affairs to discuss, or you are conscious that your figures appear to the greatest advantage by walking. If the first, I should get in your way. If the second, I can admire you much better from here."
  • (Netherfield Butler) "A Mrs. Bennet, a Miss Bennet, a Miss Bennet and a Miss Bennet, sir."
  • (Kelly Reilly) "Oh for heaven's sake, are we to receive every Bennet in the country?"
  • (Kelly Reilly) "Charles. You cannot be serious."

Matthew Macfadyen as Mr. Darcy

  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "May I have the next dance, Miss Elizabeth?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "You may."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Mr. Gardiner, are you fond of fishing?"
  • (Penelope Wilton) "Oh, very much."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Can I persuade you to accompany me down to the lake this afternoon? It's very well-stocked, and its inhabitants have been left in peace for far too long."
  • (Penelope Wilton) "I would be delighted."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Do you talk, as a rule, while dancing?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "No -- No, I prefer to be unsociable and taciturn -- Makes it all so much more enjoyable, don't you think?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Tell me, do you and your sisters very often walk to Meryton?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Yes, we often walk to Meryton. It's a great opportunity to meet new people. In fact, when you met us, we'd just had the pleasure of forming a new acquaintance."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Mr Wickham's blessed with such happy manners, as may ensure his making friends. Whether he is capable of retaining them, is less certain."
  • (Keira Knightley) "He's been so unfortunate as to lose your friendship. I dare say that is an irreversible event."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "It is. Why do you ask such a question?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "To make out your character."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "What have you discovered?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Very little. I hear such different accounts of you as puzzle me exceedingly."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "I hope to afford you more clarity in the future."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "So this is your opinion of me. Thank you for explaining so fully. Perhaps these offences might have been overlooked had not your pride been hurt by my honesty --"
  • (Keira Knightley) "My pride?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "-- in admitting scruples about our relationship. Could you expect me to rejoice in the inferiority of your circumstances?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "And those are the words of a gentleman. From the first moment I met you, your arrogance and conceit, your selfish disdain for the feelings of others made me realize that you were the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Forgive me, madam, for taking up so much of your time."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "I love you. Most ardently. Please do me the honor of accepting my hand."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Sir, I appreciate the struggle you have been through, and I am very sorry to have caused you pain. Believe me, it was unconsciously done."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Is this your reply?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Yes, sir."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Are you -- are you laughing at me?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "No."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Are you rejecting me?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "I'm sure that the feelings which, as you've told me have hindered your regard, will help you in overcoming it."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Might I ask why, with so little endeavor at civility, I am thus repulsed?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "And 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."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Miss Elizabeth. I have struggled in vain and I can bear it no longer. These past months have been a torment. I came to Rosings with the single object of seeing you -- 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."
  • (Keira Knightley) "I don't understand."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "I love you."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "You must know -- surely, you must know it was all for you. You are too generous to trifle with me. 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."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Are you so severe on your own sex?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "I never saw such a woman. She would certainly be a fearsome thing to behold."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "How are you this evening, my dear?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Very well -- although I wish you would not call me "my dear.""
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Why?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Because it's what my father always calls my mother when he's cross about something."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "What endearments am I allowed?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Well let me think -- "Lizzy" for every day, "My Pearl" for Sundays, and -- "Goddess Divine" -- but only on very special occasions."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "And -- what should I call you when I am cross? Mrs. Darcy?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "No. No. You may only call me "Mrs. Darcy" -- when you are completely, and perfectly, and incandescently happy."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Then how are you this evening -- Mrs. Darcy?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Mrs. Darcy --"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Mrs. Darcy --"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Mrs. Darcy --"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Mrs. Darcy --"

Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Bennet

  • (Keira Knightley) "He looks miserable, poor soul."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Miserable he may be, but poor he most certainly is not."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Tell me."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "10,000 a year and he owns half of Derbyshire."
  • (Keira Knightley) "The miserable half?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "I thought you were in London."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "No -- No. I'm not."
  • (Keira Knightley) "He's been a fool about so many things, about Jane, and others -- but then, so have I. You see, he and I are so similar."
  • (Keira Knightley) "We've been nonsensical. Papa, I --"
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "You really do love him, don't you?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Very much."
  • (Keira Knightley) "He is not proud. I was wrong, I was entirely wrong about him. You don't know him, Papa. If I told you what he's really like, what he's done."
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "What has he done?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Mr.Darcy."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Please, do be seated."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Mr and Mrs Collins have gone to the village."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "This is a charming house. I believe my aunt did a great deal to it when Mr.Collins first arrived."
  • (Keira Knightley) "I believe so. She could not have bestowed her kindness on a more grateful subject."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Shall I call for some tea?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "No, thank you."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Good day, Miss Elizabeth, it's been a pleasure."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "What have you done to poor Mr.Darcy?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "-- I have no idea."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Charlotte."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "My dear Lizzy. I've come to tell you the news. Mr. Collins and I are -- engaged."
  • (Keira Knightley) "To be married?"
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Yes of course. What other kind of engaged is there?"
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Oh, for Heaven's sake. Don't look at me like that Lizzy. There is no earthly reason why I shouldn't be as happy with him as any other."
  • (Keira Knightley) "But he's ridiculous."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Oh hush. Not all of us can afford to be romantic. I've been offered a comfortable home and protection. There's alot to be thankful for."
  • (Keira Knightley) "But --"
  • (Claudie Blakley) "I'm twenty-seven years old, 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, Lizzy. Don't you dare judge me."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Do you dance, Mr. Darcy?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Not if I can help it."
  • (Keira Knightley) "If he cannot percieve her regard, he is a fool."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "We are all fools in love."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Is that really all you think about?"
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "When you have five daughters, Lizzie, tell me what else will occupy your thoughts, and then perhaps you will understand."
  • (Keira Knightley) "I've been so blind."
  • (Keira Knightley) "He's so -- He's so -- He's so rich."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Only the deepest love will persuade me into matrimony, which is why I will end up an old maid."
  • (Keira Knightley) "I'm very fond of walking."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Yes -- yes I know."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Mr Collins is a man who makes you despair at the entire sex."
  • (Rupert Friend) "Yours, I believe."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Mr. Collins, I cannot accept you."
  • (Keira Knightley) "And that put paid to it. I wonder who first discovered the power of poetry in driving away love?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "I thought that poetry was the food of love."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Of a fine stout love, it may. But if it is only a vague inclination I'm convinced one poor sonnet will kill it stone dead"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "So what do you recommend to encourage affection?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Dancing. Even if one's partner is barely tolerable."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Now if every man in the room does not end the evening in love with you then I am no judge of beauty."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "Or men."
  • (Keira Knightley) "No, they are far too easy to judge."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "They're not all bad."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Humorless poppycocks, in my limited experience."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "One of these days, Lizzy, someone will catch your eye and then you'll have to watch your tongue."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Sir, I am honored by your proposal, but I regret that I must decline it."
  • (Tom Hollander) "I know ladies don't seek to seem too eager --"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Mr Collins, I am perfectly serious. You could not make me happy. And I'm the last woman in the world who could make you happy."
  • (Tom Hollander) "I flatter myself that your refusal is merely a natural delicacy. Besides, despite manifold attractions, it is by no means certain another offer of marriage will ever be made to you. I must conclude that you simply seek to increase my love by suspense, according to the usual practice of elegant females."
  • (Keira Knightley) "I am not the sort of female to torment a respectable man. Please understand me, I cannot accept you."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Did I just agree to dance with Mr. Darcy?"
  • (Claudie Blakley) "I dare say you will find him amiable."
  • (Keira Knightley) "It would be most inconvenient since I have sworn to loathe him for all eternity."
  • (Keira Knightley) "So which of the painted peacocks is our Mr. Bingley?"
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Well he's on the right and on the left is his sister."
  • (Keira Knightley) "And the person with the quizzical brow?"
  • (Claudie Blakley) "That is his good friend, Mr. Darcy."
  • (Keira Knightley) "The miserable poor soul."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Miserable, he may be, but poor he most certainly is not."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Tell me."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Ten thousand a year and he owns half of Derbyshire."
  • (Keira Knightley) "The miserable half?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Kitty. Lydi. What have I told you about listening at the door."
  • (Jena Malone) "Shh. Nevermind that. It's Mr. Bingley, right from the North."
  • (Jena Malone) "Five thousand a year."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Really?"
  • (Carey Mulligan) "He's single."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "Who's single?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "A Mr. Bingley, apparently."
  • (Carey Mulligan) "Shh."
  • (Keira Knightley) "If I was uncivil, then that is some excuse. But I have other reasons, you know I have."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "What reasons?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Do you think anything might tempt me to accept the hand of the man who has ruined, perhaps for ever, the happiness of a most beloved sister? Do you deny that you separated a young couple who loved each other, exposing your friend to censure of the world for caprice and my sister to derision for disappointed hopes, involving them both in misery of the acutest kind?"
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "I do not deny it."
  • (Keira Knightley) "How could you do it?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Only the deepest love will persuade me into matrimony."

Judi Dench as Lady Catherine de Bourg

  • (Judi Dench) "Now tell me once and for all: Are you engaged to him?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "I am not."
  • (Judi Dench) "And will you promise never to enter into such an engagement?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "I will not and I certainly never shall. You have insulted me in every possible way, and can now have nothing further to say."
  • (Keira Knightley) "I must ask you to leave immediately."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Good night."
  • (Judi Dench) "I have never been thus treated in my entire life."
  • (Judi Dench) "Mr. Darcy is engaged to my daughter. Now what have you to say?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Only this; that if he is so, you can have no reason to suppose he will make an offer to me."

Rosamund Pike as Jane Bennet

  • (Rosamund Pike) "How do you like it here in Hertfordshire, Mr. Bingley?"
  • (Simon Woods) "Very much."
  • (Keira Knightley) "The library at Netherfield, I've heard, is one of the finest in the country."
  • (Simon Woods) "Yes, fills me with guilt. Not a very good reader, you see. Prefer being out of doors. Oh, I mean I can read, of course. And I'm not suggesting you can't read out of doors, of course. Um --"
  • (Rosamund Pike) "I wish I read more but there always seems to be so many other things to do."
  • (Simon Woods) "Yes, that's exactly what I meant."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "Yes. A thousand times yes."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "Lydia. Kitty."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "He is just what a young man ought to be."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "Do you really believe he liked me, Lizzie?"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Jane, he danced with you most of the night and stared at you for the rest of it. But I give you leave to like him. You've liked great deal a stupider person. You're a great deal too apt to like people in general, you know. All the world is good and agreeable in your eyes."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "Not his friend. I still can't believe what he said about you."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Mr. Darcy? I could more easily forgive his vanity had he not wounded mine. But no matter. I doubt we shall ever speak again."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "Mr. Bingley is just what a young man ought to be. Sensible, good humour --"
  • (Keira Knightley) "Handsome, conveniently rich."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "You know perfectly well that I do not believe that marriage should be driven by thoughts of money."

Simon Woods as Mr. Bingley

  • (Simon Woods) "Miss Bennett."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Mr. Bingley."
  • (Simon Woods) "I've never seen so many pretty girls in my life."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "You are dancing with the only handsome girl in the room."
  • (Simon Woods) "She is the most beautiful creature I have ever beheld. But her sister Elizabeth is very agreeable."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Thoroughly tolerable, I daresay, but not handsome enough to tempt me. You'd better return to your partner and enjoy her smiles. You're wasting your time with me."
  • (Simon Woods) "But her sister Elizabeth is very agreeable."
  • (Matthew Macfadyen) "Thoroughly tolerable, I dare say, but not handsome enough to tempt me. You'd better return to your partner and enjoy her smiles. You're wasting your time with me."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Count your blessings, Lizzy. If he liked you, you'd have to talk to him."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Precisely. As it is I wouldn't dance with him for all of Darbyshire, let alone the miserable half."
  • (Simon Woods) "This is a disaster isn't it."
  • (Simon Woods) "Your friend, Miss Lucas, is a most amusing young woman."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Oh, yes, I adore her."
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "It is a pity she's not more handsome."
  • (Keira Knightley) "Mama."
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "Oh, but Lizzie would never admit that she's plain. Of course, it's my Jane that's considered the beauty of the county."
  • (Rosamund Pike) "No, Mama, please --"
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "When she was only fifteen there was a gentleman that was so much in love with her that I was sure he would make her an offer. However, he did write her some very pretty verses."

Tom Hollander as Mr. Collins

  • (Tom Hollander) "Do not make yourself uneasy, my dear cousin, about your apparel."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Just put on whatever you bought that's best."
  • (Tom Hollander) "Lady Catherine has never been averse to the truly humble."
  • (Tom Hollander) "Mrs. Bennet I was hoping, if it would not trouble you, that I might solicit a private audience with Miss Elizabeth in the course of the morning."
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "Oh, yes. Certainly. Lizzy will be very happy indeed. Everyone, out. Mr. Collins would like a private audience with your sister."
  • (Keira Knightley) "No, no, wait, please. I beg you. Mr. Collins can have nothing to say to me that anybody need not hear."
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "No nonsense, Lizzy. I desire you will stay where you are. Everyone else to the drawing room. Mr. Bennet?"
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "But --"
  • (Brenda Blethyn) "Now."
  • (Tom Hollander) "Charlotte, come here."
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Has the pig escaped again?"
  • (Claudie Blakley) "Oh. It's Lady Catherine."
  • (Tom Hollander) "-- which are only to be obtained through intercourse --"
  • (Tom Hollander) "Forgive me -- through the intercourse of friendship or civility."
