" Depuis le commencement, je pourrais dire dès le premier instant où je vous ai vu, j'ai été frappée par votre fierté, votre orgueil et votre mépris égoïste de sentiments d'autrui. Il n'y avait pas un mois que je vous connaissais et déjà je sentais que vous étiez le dernier homme du monde que je consentirais à épouser. "
"Elle est tolérable, mais pas assez pour me tenter. Et je ne suis pas d'humeur pour le moment à donner de l'importance aux jeunes filles qui attirent l'attention des autres hommes. Vous feriez mieux de retourner à votre cavalière et de profiter de ses sourires, car, avec moi, vous perdez votre temps."
" Je lui pardonnerais aisément son orgueil s'il n'avait pas mortifié le mien. "
" Elle est charmante ; tout en elle dénote une haute naissance malheureusement, elle est de santé précaire et ne peut résider en ville. J'ai déclaré un jour à Lady Catherine que cet état de choses privait la Cour britannique de son plus bel ornement car sa fille semblait être née pour être duchesse. Sa seigneurie n'est point insensible à ces petits compliments que je me flatte de présenter très adroitement. "

Orgueil et Préjugés, c'est un livre de Jane Austen, tout simplement magnifique.
Il a été par la suite adapté au cinéma, et celui de 2006 avec Keira Knightley et Matthew Macfadyen, est tout bonnement un chef d'œuvre ! Pour toutes les romantiques (comme moi), ceci est pour vous. =)

Pride and Prejudice
.
Chapter I of Volume I
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.
``My dear Mr. Bennet,'' said his lady to him one day, ``have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?''
Mr. Bennet replied that he had not.
``But it is,'' returned she; ``for Mrs. Long has just been here, and she told me all about it.''
Mr. Bennet made no answer.
``Do not you want to know who has taken it?'' cried his wife impatiently.
``You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it.''
This was invitation enough.
``Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs. Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place, and was so much delighted with it that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week.''
``What is his name?''
``Bingley.''
``Is he married or single?''
``Oh! single, my dear, to be sure! A single man of large fortune; four or five thousand a year. What a fine thing for our girls!''
``How so? how can it affect them?''
``My dear Mr. Bennet,'' replied his wife, ``how can you be so tiresome! You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of them.''
``Is that his design in settling here?''
``Design! nonsense, how can you talk so! But it is very likely that he may fall in love with one of them, and therefore you must visit him as soon as he comes.''
``I see no occasion for that. You and the girls may go, or you may send them by themselves, which perhaps will be still better; for, as you are as handsome as any of them, Mr. Bingley might like you the best of the party.''
``My dear, you flatter me. I certainly have had my share of beauty, but I do not pretend to be any thing extraordinary now. When a woman has five grown up daughters, she ought to give over thinking of her own beauty.''
``In such cases, a woman has not often much beauty to think of.''
``But, my dear, you must indeed go and see Mr. Bingley when he comes into the neighbourhood.''
``It is more than I engage for, I assure you.''
``But consider your daughters. Only think what an establishment it would be for one of them. Sir William and Lady Lucas are determined to go, merely on that account, for in general, you know they visit no new comers. Indeed you must go, for it will be impossible for us to visit him, if you do not.''
