Darcy and Elizabeth have a charming and playful discussion of their love. Elizabeth – “When did you begin to fall in love with me? I can comprehend your going on charmingly, when you had once made a beginning; but what could set you off in the first place?” Darcy – “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.” Elizabeth – “My beauty you had early withstood, and as for my manners—my behaviour to you was at least always bordering on the uncivil, and I never spoke to you without rather wishing to give you pain than not. Now be sincere; did you admire me for my impertinence?” Darcy – “For the liveliness of your mind, I did.”
