Elizabeth: [when Pintel and Ragetti finds her hiding in the closet] Parley! Pintel: [pauses] What? Elizabeth: Parley. I invoke the right of parley. According to the Code set down by the pirates Morgan and Bartholomew says you have to take me to your ...
Elizabeth Bennet: Are you too proud Mr. Darcy? And would you consider pride a fault or a virtue? Mr. Darcy: That I couldn't say. Elizabeth Bennet: Because we're doing our best to find a fault in you. Mr. Darcy: Maybe it's that I find it hard to forgi...
That which is striking and beautiful is not always good, but that which is good is always beautiful.
I certainly like the rumour that I was the father of Elizabeth Hurley's baby. It made me think I could impregnate women in a different way to everyone else. Elizabeth and I were never alone in a room together, so I must be a very powerful man indeed....
I would definitely want kids. Would they be dancers? I dunno. That's up to them. If they show interest, I will push them do the best. I was not brought up in a dancer's family. I was brought up in a family where the mentality was whatever you do, you...

I would rather be a rebel than a slave.
Men, their rights, and nothing more; women, their rights, and nothing less.
A man is given the choice between loving women and understanding them.
Elizabeth Bennet: If I was uncivil, then that is some excuse. But I have other reasons, you know I have. Mr. Darcy: What reasons? Elizabeth Bennet: Do you think anything might tempt me to accept the hand of the man who has ruined, perhaps for ever, t...
