I hardened my heart against all the Bennets. - Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy.

About This Quote

"I hardened my heart against all the Bennets." In this quote, Mr. Darcy said that he felt as if he were no longer a part of the Bennet family, because he had never been a Bennet to begin with. He was a Darcy, not a Bennet. He had always been a Darcy and never a Bennet.

This showed how much he loved Elizabeth and how much he cared about the family. Mr. Darcy was not above saying "I'm sorry" to Elizabeth, for what he had done to her and her family, but it is obvious that Elizabeth would have been devastated if Mr.

Darcy were to ever say it to her face, because she knew that he was sorry, but she also knew that there wasn't anything to be done about it now.
