Character Bio

Elizabeth Bennet photo
Elizabeth Bennet (sometimes referred to as Eliza or Lizzy) is a fictional character and the main protagonist of Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice. The novel is centred on her attempts to find love and happiness within the constraints and proprieties of her society, particularly concerning her evolving relationship with the seemingly proud and cold Mr. Darcy. Jane Austen herself considered Elizabeth Bennet "as delightful a character as ever appeared in print". She is generally considered one of Austen's most popular and endearing heroines, and one of the most popular female characters in British literature.

Elizabeth Bennet Quotes

01x06 - Part 6 Season 1 / Episode 6: - Part 6

Elizabeth Bennet: Lady Catherine, in marrying your nephew, I should not consider myself as quitting that sphere. He is a gentleman, I am a gentleman's daughter. So far we are equal.

Jane Bennet: No, I do assure you, this news does not affect me, truly, Lizzy.


Jane Bennet: I am glad of one thing: that he doesn't bring any ladies. If it is merely a shooting party, we shall not see him often. Not that I am afraid of myself; but I dread other people's remarks, Lizzy.
Elizabeth Bennet: Then I shall venture none... however sorely I am tempted. After all, it is hard that the poor man can't come to a house he's legally rented without raising all this speculation.
Jane Bennet: That is just what I think.
Elizabeth Bennet: Then we shall leave him to himself.
Jane Bennet: Yes.


Jane Bennet: Stop it, Lizzy!
