-Marriage
-The way people perceive marriage shows that marriage makes up the most important thing in life. Prejudice signifies a lot to people because that becomes a key aspect when choosing a partner to marry. According to Mrs. Bennet: "I am quite sorry, Lizzy, that you should be forced to have that disagreeable man all to yourself. But I hope you will not mind it: it is all for Jane's sake" (pg281). The prejudice of Mr. Darcy is so negative in Mrs. Bennet's mind that she sees the walk with him as a torture. On the other hand Lizzy would have a different opinion regarding the walk with Mr. Darcy.
-Money and social class also plays a big role in marriage. A perfect marriage would be considered the one where the people that are marrying are of similar social classes. The case of Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth is very different and the bond between them is expressed by Lady Catherine as "You will be censured, slighted, and despised, by everyone connected with him. Your alliance will be a disgrace; your name will never be mentioned by any of us" (pg266). The hate of Lady Catherine is very big and it is only because Elizabeth comes from a lower social class. The marriage between Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth exemplifies the marriage where they are joined together because of love, rather than money.
