Amanda Price:
You're better than this! I know you are because I've had you in my head, Fitzwilliam Darcy, since I was 12 years old. So why are you behaving like such a total git? Jane has no money. So what? Bingley's got stacks! What right have you to trash their love because of an... accident of birth?

Mr. Darcy:
There is no accident in birth.

Amanda Price:
Do you know what I am so angry?

Mr. Darcy:
You were born thus.

Amanda Price:
I've been in love with your life for 14 years. Cut my heart out, Darcy. It's your name written on it with Elizabeth's. God Almighty, here you are! One half the greatest love story ever told. You! And do you know what? You don't deserve her.

Mr. Darcy:
Is this interview concluded? It is so difficult to tell.

Amanda Price:
You are such a disappointment, I can hardly bear to look at you!

Mr. Darcy:
A deprivation I shall endure as stoically as I can.

Amanda Price:
You're so relentless unpleasant! I just can't get at the real you!

Mr. Darcy:
Madam! Behold, Fitzwilliam Darcy. I am what I am. If you find yourself unable to 'get at' an alternative version, I must own to being glad. I despise the intrusions of a woman so singularly dedicated to mendacity, disorder and lewdness. They repel me. You repel me. You are an abomination, Madam. Good afternoon to you.

Amanda Price:
[after Darcy leaves] If I dream about him tonight, I shall be really angry! I'm going to dream about him. Well, I hope in my dream you choke. Hateful man!
