Shannon L. AlderYou may marry Miss Grey for her fifteen pounds but you will always be my Willoughby. My nightmare. My sorrow. My past. My mistake. My regret. My love.
About This Quote
We all have pasts we’d like to forget. Sometimes, though, our pasts still haunt us and we can’t seem to shake them. If you’ve ever met someone who has no problem forgetting their past, you know how annoying it can be. However, when you meet someone who is haunted by their past and believes it will follow them wherever they go, that person is a lot like Mr.
Darcy in Pride and Prejudice. Willoughby is the man who ruined Elizabeth’s life and her love for Darcy. He humiliated her and made her feel like nothing more than a nothing.
He was the man she loved in the past and in her eyes he was never able to live up to her fantasies of him becoming a great man that would make everyone around him happy and proud.
